Tambourine

Southside Tehran meets northside Tehran in TV director Parisa Bakhtavars comedy debut, Tambourine based on a screenplay by Bakhtavars husband acclaimed filmmaker Asghar Farhadi (Fireworks Wednesday) Tambourine depicts social issues through different levels of life in todays Tehran. Robert Koehler of Variety writes: "Though not as charged and raw in its observations of martial conflict as Fireworks Wednesday, Tambourine can be viewed as a gentler companion to Farhadis drama, taking in a larger community of rich and poor characters. Casting is solid all around, as Kosaris poker-face approach serves as a good contrast to her move broadly playing co-thesps, with actors like Abbar and Shahrokshahi in the emotional middle range."
