Theysit in Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Irreversible, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

Tehran. Night. A distant rumble. Stage actors Emad and Rana's lives warp when they're forced to relocate. An act of violence explodes their private world. Farhadi's moral intensity renders genre moot.
