Program Note
[Mourning] is a road movie about the events that swirl around a deaf and mute couple, Kamran and Sharareh, which takes their sister’s son home. After a terrible quarrel with her husband at their sister’s house, Nahid and Masoud depart for Tehran without their son Arshia. The next day, Kamran and Sharareh start off to return Arshia to his parents. But they already know that Arshia’s parents were killed in a car accident. Though the movie focuses mostly on Kamran and Sharareh’s sign language conversations, it alludes to the estrangement and shock Arshia feels under the circumstances. He was left out while his parents fought and he is left out once again while his aunt and uncle talk. He only recovers his smile when talking with strangers during the trip. Because [Mourning] pivots on the conversation between Kamran and Sharareh, we must rely on subtitles to understand its content. The result is frequent long shots, a method of development that will allow the audience to experience something different from the traditional movies. (KIM Ji-seok)
