In my opinion the man looks at the relationship in a more bitter fashion and the woman still holds great hopes.

My way of expression is full of complications and mystery because that's my perception of life.

It's true that the best way of knowing yourself is to put yourself into different situations.

In my experience as a director, I think there is obviously something of the way men - maybe that's a common point with Shirin - the way men see women in the film, and the way these two characters see each other.

I think that in life, being is nothing but an illusion. If we acknowledge that and accept the fact that we are in between states, that we are moving, and this movement is the nature of our lives, and we stop having aspirations for being in a definite state, we know life better and are able to enjoy it better.

I think I really produce my best work in Iran.

I've often noticed that we are not able to look at what we have in front of us, unless it's inside a frame.
