Now let's talk about... cinema

Instead of boring you with what's cinema about, why not tell you what my favorite movie is.

My favoirte movie is Niwemang/Half moon or in spanish Media Luna. This movie's director is Bahman Ghobadi. He has won many times at cinema festivals such as San Sebastian.

This movie is about an old and wise musician that lived in Iran called Mamo. Mamo plans to give one final concert in Iraq Kurdistan. In order to do so he seeks for his ten sons that are spread around the world. They plan to travle to Iraq Kurdistan but before they need to get to a village where only women live because President Hussein didn't allow women to sing in public. They search for Hesho. She is a very beautiful woman but later she would be the reason of a delay...

The porblem is that Mamo is not supposed to do that trip as he had recurring visions of his own death at half moon.

Listen to the crow that is a bit smarter than the writer: Okay, I tell you, this movie is a masterpiece, excellent, magnificent, extraordinary, more than better it's awesome, well enough bragging. Let's get to the point shall we?? Just look at the impressive sightings, the landmarks are just perfect. Oh and almost forgot the critic in the movie is very true. I'm pretty sure Bahman Ghobadi did hate Saddam Hussein. Poor ladies confined to the depths of Iraq, just because Hussein didn't like women singin in public. How narrowminded...!! All in all it is a great movie watch it ASAP.

I wanted to post a video but it takes too much time to upload and process. The trailer can be found at this website:
