    loved it, it felt so literary, as if I was watching a novel unfold - which is how I feel when I watch Iranian films. Someone described this film as "ground zero for the female gaze" and it feels so true. I love women characters that are wonderfully weird like her. such little dialogue, but when dialogue was spoken, the lines were fantastic. Haunting and beautiful and will be thinking about this one for a long time to come.

    this film has held a special place in my heart ever since I first saw it in 2023. I love it so much. funny and tender and real and always throws me right back into childhood. One of the most charming films in existence. 🥹❤️
