由台湾金钟奖最佳导演刘嵩耗时五年拍摄的纪录片《黄羊川》，深入甘肃省穷乡僻壤，拍出令人摒息的黄土地之美。刘嵩让这部片子完全无字幕、无旁白、无故事主角，仅靠着黄羊川当地的盲人走唱乐师陈开友的音乐贯穿全片，串联十多个平常生活的小片段。
据《中国时报》三日报道，刘嵩在拍摄已故企业家、前英业达总裁温世仁纪录片《科技游侠-温世仁》时，造访这个温世仁投入赞助的地方。他深感于当地仍维持几百年前的生活方式，居民以农业为主，因低度开发而未受现代文明污染，居民的态度与当地的自然融合成十分特殊的景观。因此提出拍摄纪录片...

一个年轻男子的汽车轮胎坏了，为了去车行修理，他将车轮卸下来，像推铁环那样把车轮滚到修车行。路上，他穿过了大雪覆盖的漂亮风景，越来越为这次闲逛似的旅行感到高兴，最后终于回到自己的汽车旁。
All that happens in the 11 minutes of this film is that a man, unable to hitch a ride back to his broken-down car with a new tire, pushes it back to his car while running. However, style quickly supercedes content; the man runs to stirring, mock-Western music alongside stunning scenery, giving Kiarostami the chance to show off various shots that must have been hell to pull off.

This is one of a few Kiarostami instructional films with a subversive sense of humor; it is, however, too little to really qualify as a goofy short classic like, say, "Colours." It starts off promisingly, with the narrator making an ominous statement: "Mohammed is a good boy. He does all of his homework. He does everything his parents ask. But there is one thing Mohammed does not do well: HE IS LAZY ABOUT BRUSHING HIS TEETH!" It is a neat reminder that mental hygiene was not unique to the U.S. H...
A school scene. Class has ended. Students walk down the stairs in an orderly fashion. Good. Now rewind. Class has ended. Students walk down the stairs in a disorderly fashion. Bad.
The students make their way to a central court for their classroom break. A single water dispenser is at the center. Some students gather to drink. In orderly fashion it takes them a minute and ten seconds to satisfy their thirst. Rewind. In disorderly fashion it takes them three minutes and the dispenser is trashed ...
One of my favorites by Kiarostami.
A deaf grandfather alone in the house, turns off his hearing aid to get away from noise. The day goes by and he has not turned on his hearing aid, so doesn't hear his granddaughter at the door below. A crowd assembles (the chorus of the title) to join in yelling up to the grandfather.
Sweet story. Is it a political or generational metaphor, or both?

On July 1983, lawmakers in Teheran decided to close off a section of the capital to regular traffic. Only drivers with special permits could cross the road blocks set up at various intersections leading to the restricted zone.
Well, Iran is not Germany. Respect the law? Only if you can't get away by pleading your right to an exemption to the traffic cops. Just this time, please. I won't do it tomorrow.
Kiarostami set up shop at one of those intersections and filmed the interaction of one cop w...
Everyone who's ever complained about Kiarostami's films being dull just might have their case in point with this early film of his. Though I've found "Close Up," "Taste of Cherry" and "The Wind Will Carry Us" fascinating, this film contained limited rewards, offering little of the philosophical subtext Kiarostami is renowned for.
小男孩放学回家后才发现，他不小心把隔壁同学的作业本带回来了。这下可好了，老师今天还特别警告过，如果再不将作业写在簿子上，就要开除这个同学！身处妈妈严密的看管、祖父苛...
I just saw this film from it's screening on Arts Central, Singapore's premier tv channel dedicated to arts programming, and in some ways, our version of Australia's SBS (since this is our only free-to-air reception of 'exotic' foreign fair, minus the nudity & sex of course)
Iranian cinema, however 'world renowned', still remains as largely unfamiliar territory for me. I guess I have only truely seen works of Majid Majidi, courtesy of their widespread popularity and availability.
Shamefully, th...
In 'Homework' Kiarostami, interviews children on their personal opinions to homework. It is a great documentary, funny, sweet, and so easy to watch. Kiarostami literally films the children and interviews them and that's it, but by doing this he captures the children in such a great way that you wonder that Truffaut, is not directing the kids from off camera! The children brim with the kind of charisma that we'd forgot children could do in a film let alone in real life, and seems to seek to remin...
Truly the best, freshest, most truly independent cinema is coming from Iran - or at least was in the nineties. Time will tell. My favourite is "Salaam Cinema", a film I would love to see again. This film, from Iran's Goddard (I spose you'd call him) Abbas Kiarostami is in the docu-drama tradition. It uses the real people who took part in the real events portrayed in the movie, it uses a documentary style, but it is a film - not a documentary. I feel you could add, but is it not a documentary? Be...
This is the transition from Kiarostami's films about children into his more adult, philosophically ponderous phase (and his bridging of the gap between characters searching on foot, as in the first of the trilogy, "Where is the Friend's Home," and within cars). As with all of Kiarostami's films, it's just beautiful to look at, not so much the way he films it (although this film continues his favorite shot of action taking place extremely far away), but what is filmed. For this reason I almost fe...
