It Was Just an Accident (Criterion Collection)

Azerbaijani mechanic Vahid (Vahid Mobasseri) got a sick feeling from a walk-up customer (Ebrahim Azizi) with a prosthetic leg-from the certainty his new patron was Eghbal, the same Iranian intelligence officer who'd tortured him in prison. After Vahid kidnapped his suspect, "Eghbal" pleaded innocence... and the captor's turning to several former fellow detainees for confirmation would lead to stunning revelations. Jafar Panahi's darkly comic thriller co-stars Mariam Afshari. 103 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: Farsi; Subtitles: English; featurettes; theatrical trailer. In Farsi with English subtitles.
