A great movie

Tonight I watched a great Iranian movie called Ayneh or The Mirror. It was a stressful movie, but one of the most original and well acted movies I have seen in recent years. I don't want to talk about the plot very much because i don't want to give it away, so I will just write down what IMDB has said about it. Suffice it to say the expressions of this little girl who they were following, Mina, were amazing. You believed it all. And then there was the commentary about Iran, the little conversations going on around the girl. It really was a great movie.

A girl in traditional female clothing, and her arm in plaster, comes out of school one day and doesn't find her mother meeting her. She decides to travel home her self though she doesn't know her address and remembers the road only visually.
