Winner of this year’s Palme d’Or at Cannes, the latest from Iranian auteur Jafar Panahi follows a group of citizens pondering revenge against a man they believe was their torturer. After being censored and imprisoned (and most recently released after a hunger strike and an international campaign), SIFF favorite Panahi returns with this unforgettable edge-of-your-seat thriller. As victims of Iran’s regime grow in number and revolts are widely reported, one of the country’s most daring auteurs boldly turns the camera on himself and asks: Should the victims of the state’s crimes seek revenge or show mercy?
