 | | | | TOP STORY ‘The Seed of the Sacred Fig’ Bears Rebellious Fruit | | It’s a dialectic, pressure in, pressure out: Autocratic societies will almost by definition spawn rebellious responses, and so in a sense you could say that the filmmaking paradigm exemplified by Jafar Panahi and Mohammad Rasoulof is something the Iranian theocracy has willed into existence for itself, despite explicitly demanding the opposite.
