Kiarostami — Through The Olive Trees- Abbas
The narrative evolution of the trilogy is unique in film history:
A meta-fiction centered on a director and a film crew shooting a scene (a wedding) in a village near Koker after the 1990 earthquake. The story focuses on Hossein, an actor playing the groom, and his real-life desire to marry the actress Touba; the film documents obstacles in their attempts and the crew’s involvement. Through the olive trees- Abbas Kiarostami
The camera remains stationary at a tremendous distance. The two characters shrink into tiny white dots against the immense landscape. We cannot hear their conversation. We only see Hossein catch up to her, stand next to her for a brief moment, and then suddenly turn and run back through the trees in sheer, ecstatic joy.

Kiarostami uses this minimalist premise to dissect deep philosophical questions about human existence and the nature of art. 1. Meta-Fiction and the Illusion of Reality The two characters shrink into tiny white dots
