Parviz Shahinkhou

Yaşı ilerlemiş ve kör bir derviş olan Baba Aziz, çölde sufilerin her otuz yılda bir gerçekleştirdikleri toplantının bilinmeyen yerini aramaktadır. Küçük torunu Isthar da, ona yardım ve eşlik etmektedir. Hayat dolu olan ve dedesini çok seven Isthar, dervişlerin toplantı yerini asla bulamayacaklarından korkmaktadır. Çıktıkları uzun çöl yolculuğunda ilginç insanlarla karşılaşırlar ve Baba Aziz torununa hikayeler anlatır. Derviş olmak için tahtından feragat eden prensin hikayesi, Aziz Babanın yol boyunca anlattığı hikayeler arasındadır. Dervişlerin toplantı yerini bulduklarında ise, bu uzun yolculuk Baba Aziz için son bulmuştur. Yazar, şair, ressam ve yönetmen Nacer Khemir'in son filmi Baba Aziz, zamana bağlı olmayan ve görsel açıdan etkileyici yepyeni bir masalla yine sinemaseverleri büyülemeye devam ediyor. Bu yalın ve mistik yol hikayesi, müziği ve eşsiz görüntülerinin yanı sıra, tasavvufi öğelerle bezenmiş ve Mevlana'dan esinlenmiş diyaloglarıyla da dikkatleri çekiyor.

Noted Iranian actress Susan Taslimi plays an impoverished single mother who agees to marry off her 13-year-old daughter to a middle-aged man in return for a mare, which will help her earn an income and provide for her younger children. Director Ali Zhekan paints a stark picture of poverty and patriarchy in rural Iran (the mother stores her rice in a container hidden in a tree; her brother, who brokered the wedding, mercilessly beats the recalcitrant child), but this 1986 film is distinguished mostly by Taslimi's increasingly fiery performance as the mother decides to defend her daughter's freedom.
