Close-Up (8.0)

Movie · 1990 · 1 h 38 min · Crime, Drama

This fiction-documentary hybrid uses a sensational real-life event—the arrest of a young man on charges that he fraudulently impersonated the well-known filmmaker Mohsen Makhmalbaf—as the basis for a stunning, multilayered investigation into movies, identity, artistic creation, and existence, in which the real people from the case play themselves.

Directed by: Abbas Kiarostami
