Copia certificada kiarostami download

That's all she's longing for. But for her, it's vital. But all your problems can be solved by a simple gesture. Do it and set yourself free. If cinema is considered a reflection, then Certified Copy is a heightened version of that opaque vision of ourselves and how we perceive others. Abbas Kiarostami takes conventions of Art-House cinema and shoves those norms right in front of a full-body mirror, forcing genre and normality to confront their own limitations and customs. However, Certified Copy isn't only a reshuffle; it is also a radical stare into its own mechanisms and inner workings.

With an opening shot revealing a book entitled "Certified Copy" resting upright on a desk, Kiarostami immediately visualizes that his heart and his soul lie in the complete deconstruction of originals and copies, and not just the overhaul of previous Art-House structures. They first met as strangers. He is a writer and she is a French store owner.

The two hit it off then decides to spend a free day together. They travel to a nearby town, get coffee, and visit a museum. But as they walk and talk, the nature of their relationship suddenly becomes confusing. Wait, hold up! Are they really a married couple for 15 years or are they just strangers pretending to be one? Based on their conversations, it seems like they're too familiar with each other. Wait, what? Which is the original? Which is the copy?

So many questions. Abbas Kiarostami's Certified Copy is both confusing and captivating. Imagine if the 'Before Trilogy' was crammed into a….

Perhaps in Kiarostami's case we should cease saying "deception" and start saying "construction" - arguably the most joyful and playful of all of Kiarostami's films, Certified Copy is a literal game between the characters in the film, the director and the actors, and the film and its audience. The film lays out its central thesis within minutes of it beginning - that the reproduction of something has as much value as an original, so much so that it can take its place.

This is simple enough on paper - of course art is inspired by, or is a reflection or refraction of reality, just as one's own imagination is the manipulation of reality. But what Kiarostami does is show us…. The moment you feel grounded, in the most subtle way that you could completely miss it, Abbas pulls the rug from under you. Then shows you there was never rug, or that the rug is still there.

Neither and both, over and over. Kiarostami continues to riff on the imaginary border of reality and fiction, and the mirrored lens that is cinema. When does the copy start, and the original end. When are the actors acting as themselves, or as characters, or is there even a difference? Is this not a re-hash of films seen before? Rohmer, or Linklater, or even Godard in some sense? Re-purposed for the glory of Iran Review by Allison M. It's almost as if Abbas Kiarostami anticipated anything I'd ever think about art and life.

What gives art value? What makes the original more valuable than its copy? What gives humans value? It's almost like Kiarostami is stirring up trouble by asking these questions. However, taken at face value, maybe he has a point. You can add a movie to your Videospace collection.
