Quote:
The Traveler is a 1974 Iranian drama film directed by Abbas Kiarostami that tells the story of Hassan Darabi, a troublesome, amoral 10-year-old boy in a small Iranian town. He wishes to see the Iran national football team play an important match in Tehran. In order to achieve that, he scams his friends and neighbors. After a number of adventures, he finally reaches Tehran stadium at the time of the match. The film addresses the boy’s determination in his goal and his indifference to the effects of his actions on other people, particularly those who are closest to him. In its element, the film is an examination of human behavior and the balance of right and wrong.

The post Nahid Ghobadi and Bijan Zmanpira – Darbare 111 dokhtar AKA 111 Girls (2012) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

Synopsis:
This is the story of women at three stages of life in Iran. The first part centers on a young girl on her ninth birthday who is told that she can no longer play with the boys she had been playing with only the day before because she is now a “woman”. Told from the perspective of a nine year old “woman” who does not feel like or know what that label refers to, we see how devastatingly this affects both the girl and the boy with whom she had been friends. The second part is about a young woman who decides to enter a bicycle race against her husband’s wishes. As first the husband and then increasing numbers of men from the village ride beside her to convince her to return home, the race begins to symbolize a freedom she desperately wants from the limitations which have been placed on her. Finally, the third part shows us an old woman who has come into some money and is now free to do what she wants. The way she chooses to use this freedom, however, makes one wonder just how free she is.

Review:
Iranian director Marziyeh Meshkini’s film takes a poignant look at three generations of women. Comprised of three different, but vaguely linked stories, “The Day I Became a Woman” challenges the social and religious restrictions that Iranian culture imposes on its female members. Yet, instead of taking a heavy handed or even overtly political stance, Meshkini lets her film-making do all the work, crafting these lyrical, haunting episodes into wonderful stories, great pieces of cinema and, above all, warmly human works.

The first story gives the film its title. Hava (Akhar) turns nine and, in accordance with Islamic law, becomes a woman. She has just one hour left to say goodbye to her friend before she must return home to a life of seclusion. In the second story, an older girl enters a bicycle race. Ignoring the angry relatives who follow her on horseback, she keeps pedalling. In the third episode, an elderly woman goes on an absurd spending spree, setting up her possessions on the beach.

Winner of a raft of awards from film festivals as diverse as Venice, Toronto, and Oslo, “The Day I Became a Woman” is a fascinating film. Its simplicity hides a wonderful depth of feeling and intent that speaks volumes about the restrictions imposed on women by religion, and by society’s strict belief in defining behaviour in accordance with gender. As a Middle Eastern film with a feminist thrust, it’s unlikely to be seen by the majority of cinemagoers, but don’t let your preconceptions dissuade you: this is a beautiful gem.
