Dir. Sam Kalantari - 2015 - Iran - Language: Farsi - Subtitles: English
In Qaleh Hassan Khan, a town between Tehran and Karaj in Iran, 'He' follows mannequins on their journey from the factory floor to the shop window.
"Like a science-fiction film, 'He' examines the surreal path of shop window dummies, from their design in a factory to a possible final use. Between the two lies a colourful Iranian society which seems to be sounded out, intermittently unveiling the repressed spectres of an erotic imagery." Visions du Reel http://ow.ly/5CWR50BBVTR
