A Separation
A powerful tale of a middle-class marriage in crisis, and winner of the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film.
Director: Asghar Farhadi
Overview
Academy Award winner and recipient of the Berlin Film Festival's Golden Bear, Asghar Farhadi's tough, powerful tale of the breakdown of a middle-class marriage charts the dire consequences of a fierce argument that develops between the husband and a young working-class woman hired by the wife to look after his elderly, ailing father. Working from a brilliant script packed with ambiguities and ironies, the cast brings great subtlety and depth to Farhadi's astute study of self-serving hypocrisy and deceit.
