Dear Abbas...

About This Movie

So, 'Dear Abbas...' is this fascinating little documentary that pays homage to Abbas Kiarostami, and it's shot entirely on an iPhone 8. It’s got this raw, intimate feel that's hard to shake off. You can really sense the personal connection and the reverence for Kiarostami’s work throughout. The pacing is contemplative, almost meditative at times, allowing you to soak in the reflections and memories shared. The visuals—while simple—carry a kind of beauty that only the iPhone can capture in its own way. It's really about the themes of memory, loss, and the power of cinema itself. It’s distinctive because it feels like a personal letter rather than a typical documentary, and that’s quite refreshing.
