CRIMSON GOLD
dir. Jafar Panahi
IR, 97′
One morning, there is a murder-suicide at a jewellery store. This dark news story reveals one man’s humiliation in a world of social injustice. After the jewellery store owner humiliates and refuses to let him into the store, the delivery man and war veteran is gradually driven to the edge. Described as the Iranian Taxi Driver, this slow-burn thriller is a critique of a repressive society and the tragic fate of those it tramples.
