10 on Ten

About This Movie

So, '10 on Ten' is this introspective piece from Kiarostami. It’s kind of like a behind-the-scenes look at his own filmmaking process, which is always a treat for us collectors. The pacing is quite contemplative, as he unpacks his choices in 'Ten'—the way he uses the camera, the interactions. There’s a quiet power to the way he examines not just the act of filmmaking but the themes of everyday life that run through his work. It’s not flashy, but rather rich with thought, almost like a meditation on art itself. The atmosphere is intimate and personal, making you feel like you’re sharing a moment with the director. Really distinctive in its meta-narrative approach.
