This fiction-documentary hybrid uses a sensational real-life event—the arrest of a young man on charges that he fraudulently impersonated the well-known filmmaker Mohsen Makhmalbaf—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.

Get the impression that this film was made by the director for himself and himself only, without any consideration towards the audience. The story is stupid and one that only a film director would come up with. Tbh i’d expect this type of indulgence and pretentiousness to come out of the Italian or french new wave. Very reminiscent of the worst of those films. All talk, nothing else. I mean it carries u along well enough, its just a nothing story. If it was any longer than it is it would become unbearable, no doubt. Just another so called masterpiece that would be of no interest to anyone outside filmmaking or criticism. I don’t hate it but i’m sick of mediocre shit being on top 100 lists. U won’t miss anything if u skip it. 5/10
