Salaam everyone! سلام به همگی
Watching films in Farsi can greatly enhance language learning through natural dialogue and cultural context. Kiarostami’s works are a wonderful place to start.
تماشای فیلم بهزبان فارسی میتواند بهطور چشمگیری در یادگیری زبان کمک کند، از طریق گفتوگوهای طبیعی و ایجاد زمینه فرهنگی. آثار کیارستمی نقطهی شروعی عالی هستند.
Here is a must-watch list of Abbas Kiarostami’s films:
1. Taste of Cherry (1997) – Palme d’Or winner at Cannes; a profound, minimalist exploration of life, death, and human connection.
2. Close-Up (1990) – A fascinating blend of documentary and fiction about identity and truth; often cited as one of the greatest films ever made.
3. Where Is the Friend’s House? (1987) – A simple yet powerful story of a boy trying to return his friend’s notebook; the first in the “Koker Trilogy.”
4. And Life Goes On (1992) – The second part of the Koker Trilogy; a meditation on resilience after the 1990 Iran earthquake.
5. Through the Olive Trees (1994) – The final part of the Koker Trilogy, blending reality and fiction with characteristic Kiarostami warmth.
6. The Wind Will Carry Us (1999) – A poetic, contemplative masterpiece about tradition, modernity, and mortality.
7. Certified Copy (2010) – A French–Italian production starring Juliette Binoche; an elegant exploration of authenticity and relationships.
8. Like Someone in Love (2012) – Set in Japan, this film examines loneliness and intimacy with Kiarostami’s trademark subtlety.
9. Ten (2002) – A bold, minimalist experiment set almost entirely in a car, examining gender and society in Iran through ten conversations.
10. Homework (1989) – A documentary-style film that reflects on childhood, education, and the pressures on Iranian schoolchildren.
Enjoy!

ضرب المثل روز : Proverb of the
“ زیره به کرمان بردن”
/Zireh be Kermaan bordan/
Translation:
Taking cumin to Kerman.
Meaning:
This proverb is similar to the English saying “Carrying coals to Newcastle.” It means bringing something to a place that already has plenty of it, making your effort unnecessary.
Kerman is a city in Iran famous for its high-quality cumin, so bringing cumin there would be pointless.
