"A Bitter End is better than No Ending Bitterness".
I saw "About Elly " last night in Fajr Film Festival, and WOW! In first look, the film is a simple family adventure, three Iranian families go to trip and everything seems perfect that accidentally becomes a sad drama. It begins with a simple lie and then by missing Elly, hiding truth ruins everything: morality, humanity, loyalty and suddenly you ask yourself: "What do they think about Elly, Really?"
Storytelling is simple but professional and the cast are great, especially Golshigteh Farahani(Sepideh) shows that she is one of the most talented Iranian actresses.
And all, I highly recommend it for who likes to see a modern "L' Avventura" and modern "Antonioni".
