From the winner of the Academy Award for last year’s Best Foreign Language Film (A Separation) comes The Past, an intense family drama wrapped in a mystery. Marie, who has been separated from her husband Ahmad for years, wants a divorce. He reluctantly agrees and makes his way from Tehran to Marie’s home in France to finalize things. The problems start when Ahmad agrees to stay with Marie and her family, and realizes she intends to marry another man. Things are complicated further by Samir, Marie’s fiancé, who is also on the scene. As Ahmad becomes embroiled in difficult family dynamics, secrets are revealed, resulting in disquieting revelations that will affect everyone. Intricately plotted and engrossing, The Past explores how prior actions can impact the future in unintended ways. Justin Chang of Variety says, “The Past is a superbly written, directed, and acted drama that commands attention every step of the way.”
