If you loved El sabor de las cerezas, try Primer plano
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Abbas Kiarostami, and they both carry the foreign gem, outsider mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to El sabor de las cerezas, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Primer plano is
You wake as Sabzian, a bus-route clerk with two children and mounting debts. You pretend to be Makhmalbaf on a Tehran porch and everything tilts. Then the camera rolls, the real comes undone, and identity folds like paper. Kiarostami’s hybrid blurs the line between life and art, leaving you unsure where one ends and the other begins.
