MANUSCRIPTS DON"T BURN
July 25 thru July 31
Directed by Mohammad Rasoulof, Drama/Political Thriller, Iran
Persian w/English subtitles, 125 min
"The existence of this film is a luxury not to be taken for granted, and its dissemination and debate in America even more so. Surreptitiously shot on location in Tehran after Rasoulof was sentenced in 2010 to a one year prison sentence and a 20-year prohibition from film making, MANUSCRIPTS DON'T BURN was clandestinely made under the nose of the Ahmadinejad regime. Rasoulof is being held captive in Iran after the government confiscated his passport. As of today, he is still unable to leave." -Sam Fragoso, The Dissolve
Clandestinely produced in disavowal of a 20-year filmmaking ban passed down by the Iranian authorities, the scathing MANUSCRIPTS DON'T BURN brings a whole new level of clarity and audacity to Mohommad Rasoulof's already laudable career. Drawing from the true story of the government's attempted 1995 murder of several prominent writers and intellectuals, Rasoulof imagines a repressive regime so pervasive that even the morally righteous are subsumed or cast aside. A lacerating and slow-burning thriller filmed in a frigid palate of blues and greys, MANUSCRIPTS DON'T BURN is perhaps the most subversive and incendiary j'accuse lodged against an authoritarian regime since the fall of the Soviet Union.
