Kasi az gorbehaye Irani khabar nadareh / No One Knows About Persian Cats (2009)





Filmed illegally in Tehran, this new film from Bahman Ghobadi (Turtles Can Fly) explores Iran's illicit underground music scene. We follow a musical duo as they desperately (and sometimes dangerously) seek out band mates and the legal paperwork they need for a promised London gig. Despite 'Western and decadent music' being banned the country is a hotbed of indie, rock, metal, rap, blues and jazz where young talents risk arrest by rehearsing in barns, basements and rooftops. The music from genuine Iranian artists is impassioned and frustrated, full of a fast paced energy that will stay with you long after the credits roll. Raw, believable and profound

It won the Special Jury Prize in the Un Certain Regard section at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival.

Ashgar Farhadi's Golden Bear winner takes top honors Down Under.

SYDNEY -- The winner of the 2011 Sydney Film Prize came down to a tight contest between two Middle Eastern films, Ashgar Farhadi’s Nader and Simin, A Separation from Iran and Mohamed Diab’s Cairo 678 from Egypt, but it was ultimately A Separation that took away the AUS$60,000 ($63,600) prize announced Sunday.

Sydney Film Festival Jury president Chen Kaige said both films came close to fulfilling the competition's key criteria.

“The 2011 Official Competition Jury has been mindful of the key criteria for this prize: we award a film that best demonstrates emotional power and resonance; a film that is audacious, cutting-edge, courageous and goes beyond the usual treatment of the subject matter. In our final deliberations we found two very different films about the relationships between men and women came closest to fitting these criteria. We take great pleasure in awarding the Sydney Film Prize to A Separation,” Chen said.

A Separation “looks beneath the surface of relations between men and women in Iran in a way that raises questions about law, freedom and feminine and masculine honor. It is an extremely courageous film, successfully executed,” Chen added.

The jury also praised Cairo 678’s “courage in using a popular form of cinema to successfully communicate the frustration and anger of women in Egypt with sexual harassment, and their determination to change this. It’s a film that resonates the world over.”

Joining Chen on the 2011 Official Competition Jury were actor Kerry Fox, British producer Mark Herbert, ABC Radio National’s senior film critic Julie Rigg and Australian director Sarah Watt.

Speaking from Iran, Farhadi said, "Here in Tehran at my home the day has just began and I have been awakened by my dear friend with a phone call giving me news of this award. I am on this side of the world and you are on the other, at this moment when it is the start of day here, it is approaching night time there. What could bring us together better than cinema? It removes the time and space separating us. I would like to thank Clare Stewart, festival director and her team as well as jury president Chen Kaige and the members of the jury for this award and I would like to share this happiness with my fellow Iranians living there in Australia. Thank you.”

A Separation was the fourth winner of the Sydney Film Prize and beat out 11 other features, which also included Cannes Palme D’Or winner, Terrence Malick's The Tree of Life and Australian Cannes entries Sleeping Beauty and Toomelah, in the festival’s Official Competition. It reprised the film's Golden Bear Award for best feature at this year's Berlin Film Festival.

Other awards announced on the festival’s closing night included: The 2011 Foxtel Australian Documentary Prize, which went to Life in Movement, produced and directed by Bryan Mason and Sophie Hyde; the Dendy Award for Best Live Action Short is The Palace written and directed by Anthony Maras and produced by Maras and Kate Croser; and the CRC Award for a Multicultural film was won by 33 Postcards, the first official Chinese-New South Wales co-production, directed by Pauline Chan and produced by Chan, Penny Carl-Nelson, Liu Zhijiang and Lesley Stevens.

Dario Russo, the creator of viral web hit Italian Spiderman, won The Peter Rasmussen Innovation Award, for an Australian whose work in film, machinima or new media “embodies a visionary spirit and a relentless determination in the face of obstacles -- financial or otherwise -- to create high quality works for the screen.”

The results of the 2011 Audience Awards will be announced later this week.

دلیل برتری «جدایی نادر...» بر فیلم*های هالیوودی

روزنامه اسكاتمن چاپ اسكاتلند درباره فیلم ایرانی «جدایی نادر از سیمین» به كارگردانی «اصغر فرهادی» نوشت: این فیلم متفاوت از فیلم*های هالیوودی، سراسر اخلاقیات است و ارزش دیدن دارد.

به گزارش فارس، در یادداشت منتقد روزنامه اسكاتمن آمده است: «اصغر فرهادی»، فیلمساز ایرانی در فیلم «جدایی نادر از سیمین»، از نزدیك به مشكلات زندگی یك زوج جوان می*پردازد كه شاید در فضای جمهوری اسلامی معنا داشته باشد و چندان برای مخاطب خارجی آشنا نباشد.

این فیلم درباره زوج جوانی است كه با مشكلات فراوان ازدواج می*كنند و زن كه سیمین نام دارد با بازی «لیلا حاتمی» قصد دارد تا از ایران را به قصد زندگی در خارج از كشور ترك كند ولی همسرش نادر كه مجبور است از پدر بیمارش نگهداری كند حاضر نیست او را همراهی كند.

این روزنامه به اظهارات اصغر فرهادی در این باره پرداخته و نوشته است: كارگردان این فیلم گفته است شاید برای مخاطبان ایرانی ارتباط كامل با داستان این فیلم راحت*تر باشد ولی به نظر من تمركز اصلی این داستان یك زوج ازدواج كرده و مشكلات*شان است و ازدواج ارتباطی است كه میان دو بشر برقرار می*شود و هیچ ربطی به زمان و مكان و جامعه خاصی ندارد.

اسكاتمن نوشت: فرهادی امسال جوایز مهمی چون خرس طلای بهترین فیلم، بهترین بازیگر نقش اول زن و مرد را در جشنواره فیلم برلین از آن خود كرد، این فیلم همچنین اخیرا در فرانسه با استقبال فراوان روبرو شد آنچنان كه «نیكولاس ساركوزی»، رییس جمهور این كشور خواستار دیدن این فیلم شد، دیدن این فیلم به همه توصیه می*شود. «جدایی نادر از سیمین»، فیلمی فوق*العاده پویا و پر از معماهای اخلاقی است كه مدت زمان زیادی است كه دیگر در فیلم*های هالیوودی شاهد آن نیستم.

این روزنامه افزود: یكی از منتقدان سینما نیز این فیلم را تا حدودی هیچكاكی نامیده است، از نظر او این فیلم مثل یك افسانه اخلاقی می*ماند كه از استرس*ها و فشارهای یك فیلم كلاسیك كارآگاهی برخوردار است كه این استرس در طور فیلم افزایش می*یابد تا جایی كه تماشاچی را سرجایش میخكوب می*كند، فقط مسئله تعجب*انگیزی كه در این باره وجود دارد این است كه چرا فرهادی تماشاچی را بدون پایانی مشخص و با سوالات فراوان رها كرده است.

فرهادی می*افزاید: مخاطبان غربی اغلب تصویری بسیار بهم ریخته از زنان ایرانی دارند و آنها را تنها انسان*هایی مطیع در بند خانه و زندگی و به دور از هرگونه فعالیت اجتماعی می*دانند، شاید تعداد زیادی از زنان ایرانی اینگونه زندگی كنند ولی بخش عظیمی از زنان جامعه ایران نیز حضور بسیار فعال و پررنگ در جامعه دارند، در فیلم «جدایی نادر از سیمین» ما شاهد هر دو قشر از این زنان هستیم، بدون آن كه هیچ كدام از آنها محكوم و یا مورد تایید قرار گیرند.
