A surprisingly engaging movie, somewhat staged. Panahi's fares include a midget bootleg video dealer; two old dears trying to get to a sacred spring to release some goldfish; Panahi's precocious niece and a woman taking roses to a political prisoner on hunger strike.
Panahi is not allowed to make movies by order of the Iranian censor, so the film is also a bootleg, of sorts. Recommended.
