This Friday we are proud to open TATAMI, the acclaimed collaboration between Iranian and Israeli filmmakers. Some plaudits from top American film critics:
“A superb example of pop cultural translation that freshens up the clichés of the sports corruption thriller and gives the actors and filmmakers a chance to flex their considerable skills.” ~ Matt Zoller Seitz, RogerEbert.com
“The mounting tensions of these moving parts — and steely performances by Mandi and Amir — make for an engrossing thriller fueled by female rage.” ~ Beatrice Loayza, New York Times
“Despite its urgent political engagement, TATAMI never forgets to be a gripping watch.” ~ Catherine Bray, Variety
“Vibrantly helmed and performed, with co-director and Cannes best actress winner Zar Amir Ebrahimi playing one of the leads, the film is a win both behind and in front of the camera.” ~ Jordan Mintzer, Hollywood Reporter
