Summary:
Andreas Ungerböck’s Review on AMP Andreas Ungerböck, in his review for AMP, writes about the film My Daughter’s Hair (Raha), noting that Hesam Farahmand, in his first feature film, tells a deeply “moral” story reminiscent of internationally acclaimed Iranian cinema (such as the works of Abbas Kiarostami, Jafar Panahi, and Asghar Farhadi). He emphasizes that such a story could only emerge from Iranian cinema. Ungerböck explains that the events in the film initially resemble a chaotic comedy until the story takes a tragic turn. This transition is so natural that the audience accepts the slow-building spiral of madness. He notes that the director and screenwriter combine a quasi-neorealist premise (who wouldn’t think of Vittorio De Sica’s “Bicycle Thieves” when confronted with a story about a stolen laptop?) with elements of genre cinema and a melodramatic noir infused with strong suspense.
