TALE OF THE SEA (Hekayat-e Darya)
\nReviewed for Shockya.com and BigAppleReviews.net by: Harvey Karten
\nDirector: Bahman Farmanara
\nScreenwriter: Bahman Farmanara
\nCast: Bahman Farmanara, Fatemeh Motemad Arya, Leila Hatami, Saber Abar, Ali Nassirian
\nScreened at: Critics\u2019 link, NYC, 1\/
\nOpens: January 10, 2019 at the First Iranian International Film Festival in NY: At IFC Center, 323 6th Avenue, NY NY.<\/strong><\/p>\n

You would not be surprised at the similarity of \u201cTale of the Sea\u201d to previous works from the Iranian filmmaker, Bahman Farmanara. Farmanara deals with momentous subjects in previous works. In \u201cSmell of Camphor, Fragrance of Jasmine,\u201d for example, the writer-director envelops his principal character with thoughts of death, plot items evoking thoughts of the final exit. The principal character wonders why his niece\u2019s husband fails to return home. He searches hospitals for an unclaimed body while his own heart is giving out. In \u201cA Separation,\u201d a married couple runs into conflict as one partner wants to leave Iran while the other needs to care for an ailing mother. A heart (one breaking, the other physically fragile), marital conflict, illnesses including a budding schizophrenia and depression, and once again thoughts of leaving Iran, crop up again. This new film may remind literate moviegoers of the works of Ingmar Bergman, particularly his 1957 film \u201cWild Strawberries\u201d(an aging man confronts the emptiness of his existence)\u2014while Peyman Yazdanian\u2019s score at times recalls Hitchcockian tones.<\/p>\n

\u201cTale of the Sea,\u201d which takes place in a writer\u2019s spacious home overlooking the ocean, is a theatrical piece, with most scenes involving one or two people with the occasional presence of a trio. Taher Mohebi (Bahman Farmanara), the principal character, is played by the filmmaker, who is 77 years old, a large man made up to look as though he is approaching his mid-80s. Conversations take place between drinks of tea that his wife Jaleh (Fatemeh Motamed-Arya) often prepares and a cup of Turkish coffee brewed by Paraveneh, a surprise guest in his home who will radically change the married couple\u2019s life. <\/p>\n

For his part Taher, a writer known by his former students as Maestro, has spent three years in an institution for the emotionally disturbed, longing to remain there though prodded by his doctor (Ali Mosaffa) to go out and face reality. Taher continues to look like Job, years of woe yielding a face whose perpetual sadness belies the pale blue eyes that we assume should connote joy. We don\u2019t wonder why his wife wants a divorce, though she will wait until her husband gets better lest an announcement of separation now lead to the poor man\u2019s death.<\/p>\n

A few scenes on the beach take us temporarily away from the purely theatrical. Taher meets people from his past, including a hallucinatory friend (Ali Nassirian) who had been \u201cassigned to eternity” years earlier, and an emotional political activist (Saber Abar) who would like to relive the best years of his life\u2014which were back in college when Maestro was his favorite teacher. All this Proustian remembrance of past memories is not unlike the situation faced by Dr. Eberhard Isak Borg in \u201cWild Strawberries,\u201d whose \u201cvisits\u201d to past people in his life remind him of the emptiness of his existence.<\/p>\n

If you are not familiar with Ingmar Bergman\u2014though if you read commentary on this film you surely must be\u2014then think of Katherine Hepburn who, when asked about the value of old age to provide wisdom to youth replies that old age has not a single redeeming feature. You would expect that in his better days, Taher, active as a teacher and a celebrity author as well, was a different person, and you would probably be right. By the time you exit the theater, you may be more fearful of growing old (yes, of course, it\u2019s better than the alternative), than ever. The melancholia of age and the way the brilliant director, producer, screenwriter and principal actor work to make you feel the mournful emotions, are what make \u201cTale of a Sea\u201d a downer, if you will, but one that will leave you absorbed for its full 97 minutes while respecting that this filmmaker is at the top of his game.<\/p>\n
