In the final chapters of esteemed Iranian filmmaker Abbas Kiarostami's creative journey, he embarked on an intriguing experimental endeavor that blends the world of cinema with the timeless artistry of still images. Over a span of three years, Kiarostami carefully crafted 24 short films, each approximately four-and-a-half minutes long, drawing inspiration from paintings and photographs. These brief yet profound cinematic vignettes are not merely adaptations but rather an intimate dialogue between the visual languages of film and other art forms, demonstrating Kiarostami's mastery in weaving together a story through powerful imagery. The resulting collection serves as both a tribute to the artistic influences that inspired him and as a testament to Kiarostami's own enduring legacy in the world of cinema.
