1997. Japan. Dawn breaks over the mountains in one continuous shot. 5 min.

The Taste of Cherry
1997. A middle-aged man circles the mountains in his truck, appealing to strangers and luring them into fateful conversations. Kiarostami's Palme d'Or winner is haunting and sublime. It poetically transcends the reality of its life-and-death questions as the film refuses to offer any answers—or even an ending. 99 min.
