Re: WE CAN SLEEP SAFE -. US denies visa to Iranian filmmaker Abbas Kiarostami.

i saw some iranina films from the public library a few years back. they were some very good films. i believe they were shorts. i don't know the author.

one was about an impending death of a person from a mob boss type of guy. the crime boss got the guy who apparently did something wrong, and he was pretty sure but not positive that he was going to be killed, and i think it was about the situation and what the guy was going through kind of knowing he had no chance to live. the film had started out with the merciless slaughter of a pig by cutting it's throat, a symbol of what is to come.

another one was about a couple who lived inside a bus like it was a trailer, and they kept having deformed kids and they decided to go to public places to leave their latest infant in the path of a passer-by who they would hope would have some money and interest to take the baby home.

both very interesting and disturbing films. i don't know who the director was, but i know good cinema is coming out of iran.
