In totaler Finsternis bleibt einem immer noch die Poesie, sie ist immer für einen da.
In the total darkness, poetry is still there, and it is there for you.
GedichteAbbas KiarostamiThe world is my workshop. It is not my home.
Abbas KiarostamiI've often noticed that we are not able to look at what we have in front of us, unless it's inside a frame.
Abbas KiarostamiDas Kino gibt uns die Gelegenheit, gleichzeitig die Rolle der Großeltern und die der Enkel einzunehmen, im Leben kann man nur eins davon gleichzeitig sein.
Cinema gives you the opportunity to be both a grandparent and a grandchild whereas in life you cannot be both at the same time.
Filme & KinoAbbas KiarostamiI would say that no film is apolitical. There are politics in all films. Any film that is anchored in a society, any film that deals with humanity is necessarily political.
