The
Reality
of
Illusion:
Abbas
KIAROSTAMI
Ever
the
intellectual,
KIAROSTAMI
has
developed
a
sophisticated
technique
of
blurring
fiction
and
reality
and
continues
to
challenge
us
with
every
new
feature.
Early
on,
he
had
been
called
the
humanist
heir
of
Satyajit
RAY.
But
after
four
decades,
he
is
the
one
and
only,
inimitable Abbas
KIAROSTAMI.

Vietnamese
Classics:
Poetry
in
Motion
Vietnamese
films,
for
many,
are
defined
by
transnational
collaborations
under
emigrant
directors.
Yet
Vietnamese
cinema
has
another
history
forged
by
war
and
anti-colonialism.
The
HKIFF’s
selection
effectively
shows
that
although
born
in
documentation
and
propaganda,
short
of
materials
and
guided
by
Soviet
teaching,
this
cinema
developed
subtle
aesthetics
while
resonating
with
European
and
Asian
art
cinema.
