As our young hero zigzags determinedly across two towns, aided (and sometimes misdirected) by those he encounters, his quest becomes both a revealing portrait of rural Iranian society in all its richness and complexity and a touching parable about the meaning of personal responsibility. Sensitive and profound, Where Is the Friend’s House? is shot through with all the beauty, tension, and wonder a single day can contain.Text by Godfrey Cheshire.— For the full Retrospective: Abbas Kiarostami programme, please refer here.We would advise all to turn up early or on time for screenings as Oldham Theatre does not play ads.If you have any trouble purchasing your tickets, please contact us at ticketing@asianfilmarchive.org — Important Notice:Do note that Oldham Theatre does not play ads and screenings will start promptly.
