Country: Iran
Directed by Dariush Mehrjui
'The cow' is often quoted as the best Iranian movie of all time and the first movie of Iranian New Wave. Even if this , in my opinion, is far from the truth , still is a great film. Through a very simple story and a direct approach , manages to make many of complex political comments for Iran of that era and to pose many questions about our existence as social beings. The film has landscapes and spaces as very important part of the action been heavily influenced from Italian neo-realism .However , Eisenstein is also present , Kafka as well as the film has a surrealistic note, and this very solid mixture of elements gives to the movie part of its charm
