Extras: A Separation won the 84th Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film in 2012, becoming the first Iranian film to win the award. It has won more than 100 awards in all.
About The Film:
Morally complex, suspenseful, and consistently involving, A Separation
captures the messiness of a dissolving relationship with keen insight
and searing intensity.
Plot:
Nader and Simin, a middle class Iranian couple with an eleven year old
daughter named Termeh, are on the verge of divorce. They love each
other, but Simin, with exit visas for the family only good for the next
forty days, wants to leave Iran permanently to a better life especially
for Termeh. Nader, however, refuses to go as his father suffers from
Alzheimer's and Nader will not leave him behind despite he probably not
knowing who Nader is most of the time. As such, Simin moves out of their
home and back in with her own parents.
Termeh, however, stays with her
father as she sees this action as a way to bring her parents back
together. As Nader's father requires around the clock supervision,
Nader, on a suggestion from Simin about a family member of an
acquaintance, hires a man named Hojjat to be his father's caregiver when
he's at work during the day. However, on Hojjat's first day in this
position, he can't make it. Instead, Hojjat's wife, Razieh, with their
infant daughter Somayeh, shows up to do the work as they desperately
need the money. A few days in with Razieh having so far done all the
work for an absent Hojjat, an incident occurs between Nader and Razieh,
the results from which threaten both their standing in the community.
