In Le Passé, a 2013 Franco-Iranian movie, Asghar Farhadi is telling us again the story of a family as he did in the Oscar-winning film A Separation (2011).
Coming back to finalize his divorce, Ahmad, an Iranian man, arrives
in France after four years to meet his ex-wife Marie and her daughters
from her previous marriage. She is in a relationship with an Arab man
named Samir who has a son and whose wife is in a coma.
The film was nominated for the Palme d'Or award at the 2013 Cannes
