Close-Up 1990 Directed by Abbas Kiarostami کلوزآپ ، نمای نزدیک

A real-life situation based on a real incident in actual locations with actual people involved

This fiction-documentary hybrid uses a sensational real-life event—the arrest of a young man on charges that he fraudulently impersonated the well-known filmmaker Mohsen Makhmalbaf—as the basis for a stunning, multilayered investigation into movies, identity, artistic creation, and existence, in which the real people from the case play themselves.
