Goodbye (Persian: به امید دیدار, translit. Be omid e didār) is a 2011 Iranian drama film written and directed by Mohammad Rasoulof. It offers an incisive portrait of an Iranian citizen straining under curtailed personal freedoms.
Cast
Plot
Noura (Leyla Zareh) is an attorney whose license has been revoked by the government, as her resultant attempts at escape meet with ever-mounting roadblocks. Evoking a sense of dread and despair, Rasoulof (himself officially constrained from making more films) constructs a fitting metaphor for the stultifying pressures faced by many in today's Iran.
Awards
Winner of best director honors in the Un Certain Regard section of the 2011 Cannes Film Festival.
