Review by Joanne Laurier of The Circle, a film by Iranian director Jafar Panahi.

Jafar Panahi's latest film, The Circle, earns the Iranian filmmaker a place as one of the world's most courageous artists. As Panahi indicated in an interview with the WSWS, also posted today, the film was created in the face of official disapproval. It has not been shown publicly in Iran, although it won the Golden Lion as best film at the recent Venice film festival. Meeting the director, described by an associate as someone who makes no compromises, one immediately recognizes a man of deep, even painfully deep conviction and feeling. His previous works, The White Balloon (1995) and The Mirror (1997), are beautiful, sensitive films which, like many products of the Iranian cinema, circumvented the censor by speaking through children.
