Watch Hidden - 2020

Storyline

Jafar Panahi sets out to find a young woman with a golden voice that has been forbidden to sing by Iranian authorities. Social films are inspired by the director’s “sensations” and “experiences”. These sensations/experiences erode the soul of the filmmaker until they can be released into a movie. This is the reason why a filmmaker cannot be told to make or not make a movie. Telling them not to film will never breach their resistance; neither will it close all the paths leading to making a movie. The opposite is equally true : if they are commissioned a movie, something resists inside them and prevents them from making it !
