About this listen
An in depth review, synopsis, and analysis of It Was Just An Accident (2025), winner of the Palme d’Or at Cannes 2025! I give it 5 stars and rank it among my favorites of the year. In this episode I discuss the themes of political violence, justice, and redemption, and I analyze the techniques Jafar Panahi used to explore them while making this film in secret in Iran.
