- Summary
- "Abbas Kiarostami's Cinema of Life focuses on this major filmmaker's opposition to war, his eclectic spirituality which opposes orthodox Islam, and the symbolic texture of his cinema which is more attuned to poetic than philosophical interpretation. It is one of only a few English language books on Kiarostami's films, and the only to cover the most-up-to-date films and consider the Iranian context of Kiarostami's films, with a focus on content and continuity of the individual films"--
