SAT 17 OCT - IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT (12A)

What begins as a minor accident sets in motion a series of escalating consequences. Perhaps the most bluntly political film by Jafar Panahi yet, a defiant rebuke of authoritarianism that delivers the entertainment value of a gripping thriller.

When an auto mechanic encounters the man who may have been his torturer in prison, he kidnaps him to exact vengeance. But since the sole clue to Eghbal’s identity is the squeak of his prosthetic leg, Vahid turns to other now-freed victims for confirmation. And the danger only escalates.
