Devika Girish New York Times Mokri constructs his film like a control experiment, tweaking each of its variables — time, space, narrative — as if to see what he might catalyze. Feb 24, 2022 Full Review Matt Cipolla The Film Stage It's not too often a movie trusts its audience this much, and the result is one of the most meta movies this side of Mohsen Makhmalbaf's A Moment of Innocence. Rated: B+ Oct 15, 2020 Full Review Amber Wilkinson Eye for Film Time doesn't just shift in Shahram Mokri's Iranian drama about a fire at a cinema that killed 478, it also folds like origami and pirouettes, the past and present so close as they dance they can feel each other's breath. Rated: 4/5 Sep 16, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
