Orange Days

About This Movie

Orange Days is a gritty dive into the world of agricultural labor, set against the backdrop of the vibrant orange fields of northern Iran. Aban, the protagonist, is this tough-as-nails contractor who doesn't conform to the usual norms of her male counterparts. The pacing often mirrors the unforgiving nature of her work—sometimes slow as she battles obstacles, other times a frantic dash as she tries to secure her place. The film's atmosphere is raw and grounded, showcasing both the beauty and harshness of the land. The performances are solid, especially Aban's, who embodies resilience. It's distinctive not just for its themes of gender and perseverance but for the way it captures the daily grind in such an immersive manner.
