Close Up examines the growing reputation of Iranian cinema from its origins in the films of Kimai & Mehruji, through the work of established directors such as Beyzai, to the young film makers who triumphed at the Cannes 2000 festival. Dabashi employs interviews with directors, insightful commentary on individual films, extensive filmography, & generous illustration to provide an indispensable guide to a little-studied cinematic output.
