Shirin (2009)
Directed by Abbas Kiarostami
Overview
A hundred and fourteen famous Iranian theater and cinema actresses and a French star: mute spectators at a theatrical representation of Khosrow and Shirin, a Persian poem from the twelfth century, put on stage by Kiarostami. The development of the text—long a favorite in Persia and the Middle East—remains invisible to the viewer of the film, the whole story is told by the faces of the women watching the show.
