Like Someone in Love
(2012)
Directed by Abbas
Kiarostami this film stars Rin Takanashi, Ryo Kase and Tadashi Okuno.
A student working as an escort struggles to keep her profession
hidden from her family and her boyfriend.
This film pushes the
idea of narrative ambiguity to the maximum which is a little
frustrating at times, leaving the viewer not much to go on. While the
film does not feel long to me at times it felt empty but it does end
up being an interesting film about characters who never really
communicate properly with each other. Most interesting is the fact
that this is a Japanese film directed by an Iranian, not something
you see very often.
3/5
