THE WIND WILL CARRY US

Director: Abbas Kiarostami Run Time: 118 min. Release Year: 1999 Language: Persian (Farsi)

Starring: Bahman Ghobadi, Behzad Dorani, Noghre Asadi, Roushan Karam Elmi, Shahpour Ghobadi

A TV crew from Tehran arrives in a remote Kurdish village to film an unusual funeral ceremony but are stymied when the old woman they expect to die clings to life. A fablelike story about professional and personal frustration, this droll drama is the most tantalizingly opaque and allusive of Kiarostami’s films, containing numerous references to poetry and several key figures (including the old woman) who are never seen.
