A HERO follows the story of Rahim – a man in jail for a debt he can’t repay. When a plan to erase his debt goes awry, his attempt to restore his reputation and family spirals out of control.  From Asghar Farhadi, writer/director of the Academy Award-winning films A Separation and The Salesman.

“In Mr. Farhadi’s hands it’s a deliciously ironic, exquisitely complex and mysteriously stirring tale of a man, his son and family, and the staining of multiple reputations by what seems, at the outset, to be a fairly minor lie.” – Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal

“Part of the movie’s brilliance is in how it questions the very concept of a good deed.” – A.A. Dowd, AV Club

“A superb morality play that immerses us deeply in a society’s values and rituals and keeps us guessing right to its powerful final shot.” – Dave Calhoun, Time Out

Length: 2 hr. 5 min.

Language: Persian (English subtitles)
