Internationally acclaimed director Jafar Panahi drives a yellow cab through the vibrant streets of Tehran, picking up a diverse (and yet representative) group of passengers in a single day. Each man, woman, and child candidly expresses his or her own view of the world, while being interviewed by the curious and gracious driver/director. His camera, placed on the dashboard of his mobile film studio, captures a spirited slice of Iranian society while also brilliantly redefining the borders of comedy, drama and cinema.

Jafar Panahi

The director, author and producer Jafar Panahi was born in 1960 and is one of the most influential filmmakers in Iran. He attended film school after serving in the army during the Iran-Iraq war. While making short films and television documentaries, he contacted Abbas Kiarostami to offer his services in any capacity. Kiarostami became an enthusiastic mentor, helping to get Panahi’s feature debut, The White Balloon, shown at Cannes, where it became the first Iranian film to win a major prize at the festival. Among Panahi’s other prestigious awards are a Golden Lion from Venice 2000 for The Circle, a Silver Bear from Berlin 2006 for Offside, the jury’s award from Cannes 2003 for Crimson Gold and a Golden Leopard from Locarno 1997 for The Mirror. In 2010 Panahi is arrested and banned from leaving the country. He also received a 20-year ban on making movies. He was released early and since then he was able to make movies secretly and without leaving his country Iran.
