An urban couple (Mani Haghighi & Taraneh Alidoosti) who may be husband & wife, or Brother & sister, or something else; drive around in remote mountainous villages in Iran distributing bags of money to people with no apparent motive or explanation. In some cases, in return for the money they request unusual, and at times humiliating and painful deeds.
Paziraie Sadeh (Modest Reception) is a major departure from Haghighi's last work Canaan which was a mainstream story driven film. Paziraie Sadeh is obviously meant to provoke and challenge. It is a film that can be, and will be, interpreted in a variety of ways. Whether Haghighi had a specific message to convey with this film is not clear.
Paziraie Sadeh may not be to everybody's liking but it is a very well acted film which will challenge many of our conceptions.
