What Is Shirin About?
The premise of Shirin without spoilers.
You are the screen, they are the audience. One hundred fourteen celebrated Iranian actresses and a French star sit in mute silence as Abbas Kiarostami stages a theatrical rendition of the twelfth‑century Persian poem Khosrow and Shirin. The poem’s action stays off‑camera, and the entire narrative unfolds through the women's watchful faces in hush.
