It Was Just an Accident - EN subs

A minor accident triggers a chain reaction of increasingly out-of-control problems in this twelfth feature film by Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi, who won the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival.

It all begins with a collision with a dog and culminates in a meeting between a former political prisoner and the man who once tortured him. Or is it him? The closer the man gets to his moment of revenge, the more he doubts. Panahi drew inspiration for the story from the prison sentences he himself received for making his critical films. The international press has praised the film as gripping, urgent, heartbreaking, and unforgettable. A masterpiece that gets under your skin.
