I didn't get to watch as many films as I would have liked at the Middle East International Film Festival, but out of the ones I did watch I can't get over No one Knows About Persian Cats by Iranian director Bahman Ghobadi.
The film centers around Iran's underground Indie Rock scene and more specifically, a duo trying to flee Iran's strict laws to Europe to play their music freely. (This description doesn't do it justice).
From the plot to the acting to the soundtrack, everything is pieced together perfectly. Keep your eyes open for it, you'll be just as obsessed.
Looks like a December release! Hopefully we can get it here.
