Toothache
1979. Equal parts narrative and instructional cautionary tale, Toothache emphasizes taking care of one's teeth. 23 min.
-
Orderly or Disorderly
1981. Demonstrations of how to behave properly in real-life scenarios. Whether organized or chaotic, the reenacted situations are hard to capture on film: reality and cinema at odds. 16 min.
-
The Chorus
1982. An elderly man drifts in and out of the clamor of daily life, with help from his hearing aid. 17 min.
-
Fellow Citizen
1983. A traffic cop (Kiarostami's first job in real life) attempting to prevent drivers from entering a closed-off area is treated to an infinite array of excuses. A revealing study of man's capacity for inventing stories (or "lying"), and a witty use of repetition at its most extreme. 52 min.
