Career

His second feature film, Men at Work, is considered a notable contribution to Iranian cinema as well as world cinema. Its enigmatic comedy is akin to Monty Python, and its most basic elements align it with Looney Tunes, and yet despite its absurdity Men at Work feels completely real and reasonable. Interestingly, Men at Work began as an idea conceived by Abbas Kiarostami, the eminent Iranian filmmaker who has, through his work, all but defined his country's place in world cinema.
