Description
Cast: Vahid Mobasseri, Mariam Afshari, Ebrahim Azizi. At a car repair shop in the middle of the night, a former political prisoner encounters a man he believes to be the guard who tortured him. But how can he be sure, when he was blindfolded the whole time? A revenge saga as only master filmmaker Jafar Panahi could make it, It Was Just an Accident is morally complex, darkly comic, and absolutely gripping.
