Kiarostami’s spare, quietly humane road film shares its unhurried rhythm, open-ended conversations and deceptively simple form, allowing landscape and small human exchanges to carry profound feeling.

Why this pick
Its boundary-crossing blend of documentary and fiction directly extends the fascination with cinema, social reality and people performing versions of themselves that animates Through the Olive Trees.
