💨 Abstract

Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi attended the Cannes Film Festival premiering his new film “It Was Just an Accident” after overcoming a 15-year travel ban. Known for his underground filmmaking while under house arrest, Panahi’s films often highlight political and personal struggles. His new film delves into themes of revenge and forgiveness, drawing from his own imprisonment and the experiences of fellow detainees.
