Dayereh (The Circle, 2000, dir. Jafar Panahi)

I don’t like to get upset about another culture/country’s problems because I know I am not nearly upset enough about the problems of my own.  But this movie is difficult to watch without feeling like the situation in Iran is pretty fucked up.  Add to that, that the filmmaker is currently in jail, held without charges, it seems because he was going to make a movie about the election protests last year.  I just don’t know.
