Two Bows (Do Kamancheh) by Bahman Kiarostami. Iran, 2004, 41 min, MiniDV A classic story of tradition versus change told as much with the visual artistry of the filmmaker as with the subject of the story itself, Two Bows tells the tale of two captivating and proud Iranian musicians of the same age but very different means. Bahram Berdikor lives in a rural town and plays with a traditional style based on generations of teachings; Reza Derakhshani moves between Italy, Los Angeles, and Tehran, adapting his instruments to experimental sounds and contemporary styles. In Persian with English subtitles.
Sun, Nov 6, 1:00.
