With its sparse format and pungent dialogue - such as the woman's heated exchange with her angry, articulate 10-year-old son, who is furious that in order to obtain a divorce, she accused his father of drug abuse - Ten works at an astonishing level of emotional detail and conveys a huge amount of information about its main character, her passengers and their society. Kiarostami brings to his craft a rigorous technique that he honed as a graphic designer and illustrator before beginning his filmmaking career making advertising shorts in Tehran in 1950, 29 years before the fall...
