Like Someone in Love



Abbas Kiarostami : 2012

An old man and a young woman meet in Tokyo. She is a student who finances her studies through prostitution, he a brilliant, elderly academic. She knows nothing about him, he thinks he knows her. He welcomes her into his home, she offers him her body. But the web that is woven between them in the space of twenty-four hours bears no relation to the circumstances of their encounter. Described as a thematic continuation of writer/director Abbas Kiarostami's Certified Copy, the film premiered at Festival de Cannes 2012.
