In this episode, we talk about a powerful moment at the Cannes Film festival as acclaimed Iranian director Jafar Panahi presents “A Simple Accident”—a film impossible to separate from his own harrowing story. Long targeted by Iran’s regime with censorship, house arrest, and imprisonment, Panahi has defied the odds to attend the festival in person. His latest work offers a stark, unflinching portrait of Iranian society and a bold critique of the ruling powers. As buzz builds around his chances for the Palme d’Or, Panahi sits down for an interview with Louise Dupont from French channel France 24.
