About the Event

Internationally revered Iranian filmmaker Abbas Kiarostami has created some of the most inventive and transcendent cinema of the past thirty years, and Close-up is his most radical, brilliant work.This


fiction-documentary hybrid uses a sensational real-life event—the arrest of a young man on charges that he fraudulently impersonated a well-known filmmaker—as the basis for a stunning, multilayered investigation into movies, identity, artistic creation, and existence, in which the real people from the case play themselves.
