About

A schoolteacher mysteriously vanishes during the seaside holiday of a group of old university friends. What was intended as a breezy weekend away slowly becomes an escalating series of deceptions and disquieting revelations. Farhadi’s fourth feature film, About Elly brought the writer, director to international prominence winning the Silver Bear for Best Director at the 2009 Berlin Film Festival. A masterful study in human relationships, Farhadi’s power is rooted in a finely tuned sense of the unsaid yet deep-seated ethics and motivations that underpin the foibles of human desires and actions.
