Mohsen Makhmalbaf Quotes
It was really bizarre, that Sabzian business. You know I had no interest in being photographed before this incident. But then not just Sabzian—many other people started pretending they were me! One of them actually got married while pretending he was me!

Filmmakers and filmmaking is so popular in Iran because all other forms of expression have been denied to people.
