| Title | Akt nepovinovenija. Filmy Jafara Panahi |
| Description | Anton Dolin is a film critic for whom Jafar Panahi stands at the meeting point of cinema and artistic freedom. In An Act of Disobedience: The Films of Jafar Panahi, he turns to the work of the Iranian director who kept making films even after being banned from his profession. Panahi worked under state pressure, under house arrest, and under the threat of prison, yet he managed to turn those constraints into part of his own cinematic language. Dolin writes about Panahi’s films as a form of resistance. He is interested in the director’s artistic method and in the conditions under which these works came into being. A central place is given to the link between personal courage and film form: the camera inside a car, the phone, the almost documentary tone. All this becomes a way of speaking about injustice and censorship. The book presents a director who kept hold of his voice when power tried to take it away. |
