Close-Up

Close-Up 123movies: crime movie from 1990 starring Hossain Sabzian and Monoochehr Ahankhah, with a viewer rating of 8/10. This fiction-documentary hybrid uses a sensational real-life event—the arrest of a young man on charges that he fraudulently impersonated the well-known filmmaker Mohsen Makhmalbaf—as the basis for a stunning, multilayered investigation into movies, identity, artistic creation, and existence, in which the real people from the case play themselves.
