This film is one of the best movies ever made by an Iranian director, Asghar Farhadi. telling truth even it causes worst consequences _which could happen to someone_ is the distillate of "Nader and Simin, A Separation". Farhadi's previous movie "About Elly", was based on a same subject. i think lying and being dishonest have gotten a concern for him and he can't tolerate this, so he has used all kind of available tools around to express this meaning and absolutely, he has been successful in this job.
The subject he chose to base his story on, is so genius: a separation. we all know telling lies to each other is one of the reasons couples get divorced for, and this is getting bigger and bigger as time proceeds, because if you tell a lie you have to tell another lie to cover the one you've told before.
You shouldn't anticipate a happy end for this movie; the movie continues in your life, it grows in your mind and you're the one who put an end to it.
Nader and Simin, A Separation won the award for best foreign language film at the Golden Globes and The 17th BFCA Annual Critics' Choice. Also the golden Bear for best film, silver Bear for best actress and silver Bear for best actor are the awards this movie has won at the Berlin Film Festival. watch it, and enjoy.
