Renowned Iranian director Jafar Panahi received a 6-year prison sentence and a 20-year ban from filmmaking and conducting interviews with foreign press due to his open support for the opposition party in Iran's 2009 election.

gostei. o caso pessoal dele (uma daquelas injustiças inacreditáveis) e a forma como se desenvolve é muito humana. Achei cativante toda a primeira metade, onde também neste documentário se insere a obra do realizador e a sua visão pessoal como realizador de cinema, incluindo ele nos fazer ver um filme que não o pode fazer (mas vai descrevendo com muita especificidade). Vale bem a pena ver.
