NADER AND SIMIN, A SEPARATION

Winner of the Golden Bear at Berlin earlier this year, A Separation is a remarkably poised marital thriller from Iran, full of surprise developments and suppressed volatility. It opens with a youngish couple airing their grievances to an off-screen lawyer. In effect they're appealing straight to camera, to us, the audience: we shall be their judge.
