I ventured into the world of Iranian cinema in the year 2017 with the Ashgar Farhadi-directed Oscar-winning film A Separation . I remember enjoying the film and performances, especially that of the child actors. But, to be honest, I was too young to understand such kind of films. If anyone had said that to me in 2017, I would have become defensive and tried to convince them of my maturity and understanding. With time, I realized — I was not, am not, and will not be “mature”.
