This extraordinary film centres on Amir, a young Tehrani who decides to tell all in a Youtube video. When Amir is granted a night off from caring for his invalid father, his evening of fun with friends takes a nasty turn with disastrous consequences. Filmed in one single shot, Amir's stark confession brings a level of honesty rarely seen in cinema. We cannot help but be swept up by Abed Abest's anguished performance, delivered straight to the camera.
