Is Close-Up a documentary? An Iranian man who pretended to be a famous Iranian director appears as himself, as does the family he hoaxed and the journalist who broke the story. Filmmaker Abbas Kiarostami secured permission to film the man’s trial, and asks questions of the defendant on camera during the proceedings. Issues of performance and the observer effect aside, there’s no other film like it. -Lee Gardner

1990 Abbas Kiarostami 1.37:1 Color DCP 98 min. In Persian with subtitles.
