Last year, Iranian director Jafar Panahi won the Palme d'Or at Cannes for his extraordinary film It Was Just an Accident, which he shot secretly in Tehran under great risk of serious harm. Jafar has been in prison twice on charges of “anti-government propaganda” and for protesting the imprisonment of other filmmakers. At the Toronto International Film Festival back in September, he joined Tom Power to tell us how It Was Just an Accident was shaped by his two experiences in Tehran's Evin Prison.

It's no accident that we're discussing Jafar Panahi's "It Was Just An Accident" with Thomas Flight.

Welcome to The Reel Schmooze with ToI film reviewer Jordan Hoffman and host Amanda Borschel-Dan, where we bring you all the entertainment news and film reviews a Jew can use. We update that last week's main movie, "Holding Liat," is now playing in 20 locations throughout North America. Then we hear a "Jangle" about unabashed Zionist Michael Rapaport, who was just in the news for his participation in "The Traitors." The first "Schmoovie" of the week is "It Was Just an Accident" by Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi. Nominated for two Academy Awards, it is playing internationally at major arthouse theaters. The premise is roughly based on Panahi's stints in Iranian prisons for his films exposing the oppressive regime. It includes a ragtag group trying to assess if a kidnapped man is indeed their interrogator/torturer. Though the set-up sounds grim, there is plenty of Panahi's trademark wit to keep you thinking -- and chuckling. The second film discussed is 2015's "Taxi," which was produced during a period in which Panahi was barred from creating films. Smuggled out and screened at the Cannes film festival, the movie takes place in a borrowed taxi and includes an uncredited cast of everyday Iranians -- or are they? Check out the two "not bad" films (our highest mark) in this week's The Reel Schmooze. The Reel Schmooze is produced by Ari Schlacht and can be found wherever you get your podcasts.

Iranian director Jafar Panahi has been making social cinema since the 1990s. His work follows everyday Iranians and their struggles against societal forces. In 2010 the director received a ban on filmmaking from the Iranian government, and in 2022 he was imprisoned after he inquired into a fellow filmmaker's arrest. Despite being jailed and censored, Panahi has continued to work. His films such as "The Circle,” “Taxi” and “No Bears” have won awards from the top film festivals in the world. Now his latest film, “It Was Just an Accident,” has been nominated for two Oscars for best international feature film and best original screenplay. The film follows a group of former Iranian political prisoners who kidnap a man they suspect was their torturer, but they aren't totally sure it's him. Panahi shot the film in secret in Iran because he didn't have official government permission to make it. While it is receiving critical acclaim around the world, it's being repressed in Iran, where the government recently handed Panahi a new prison sentence. Today on “Post Reports” Elahe Izadi speaks with Jafar Panahi about how he made “It Was Just an Accident” and why he is planning to return to Iran once his awards campaign is over. The two spoke this month, before this week's Oscar nominations and the most recent escalation of anti-government demonstrations and crackdowns in Iran. Today's show was produced by Lucas Trevor, Joshua Carroll and Sam Bair, who also mixed it. It was edited by Elana Gordon and Peter Bresnan, with help from Reena Flores.Thanks to Neon for movie clips and photos.Subscribe to The Washington Post here. And watch us on YouTube here.

The Iranian film It Was Just an Accident enters Oscars season with the wind at its back. It won the top prize at Cannes, a raft of other awards and has landed on a lot of top ten lists. The movie bears out those accolades. Directed by Jafar Panahi, it's a tense, volatile, often darkly funny movie about what happens when a former political prisoner runs into a man he's almost convinced is the one who tortured him and other prisoners. Follow Pop Culture Happy Hour on Letterboxd at letterboxd.com/nprpopcultureLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

In this episode of Quakers Today, co-hosts Sweet Miche (they/them) and Peterson Toscano (he/him) tackle a question that seems simple but is actually quite complex: What do Quakers believe? We explore the wide theological spectrum of the Religious Society of Friends from those who view the Bible as the inerrant word of God to those who may not believe in God at all. A Smorgasbord of Beliefs We hear from Adam Segal-Isaacson, a Friend from Brooklyn Meeting who was raised both Jewish and Quaker. Adam shares how he navigates his dual identity and offers a powerful metaphor about harmony versus monotony in worship. Watch the full QuakerSpeak video: Do All Quakers Hold the Same Beliefs? An Evangelical Friend Among Liberals Peterson sits down with Jasson Arevalo, an Evangelical Quaker from El Salvador and a student at the Earlham School of Religion. Jasson describes the "Programmed" tradition of his upbringing—complete with pastors and music—and his view of Biblical inerrancy. He shares his experience of studying alongside Liberal, Unprogrammed Friends and how curiosity and respect bridge the theological divide. Read Jasson's article, "You Will Be Told What You Must Do," in the December 2025 issue of Friends Journal or at FriendsJournal.org. Convincement and Belonging What makes someone a Quaker? Is it a membership card or an internal shift? We review the new Pendle Hill pamphlet, Awakening the Witness: Convincement and Belonging in Quaker Community by Matt Rosen. The pamphlet explores the distinction between "convincement", the spiritual experience of becoming a Friend, and formal membership. Learn more at PendleHill.org. Recommendation Peterson recommends the Iranian film It Was Just an Accident, directed by Jafar Panahi. It is a darkly comic and morally complicated story about the long-term effects of trauma and the refusal to become like one's oppressors. Listener Responses We asked you: What do you believe now that you didn't believe before becoming a Friend? Jeremy shares how Quaker history helped him understand the "Great Apostasy" as the moment the church merged with political power. Zoe discusses moving from "religion as harm" to religion as a positive force for community. Creative Decorating reflects on the mind-blowing concept of "that of God in everyone."

One of Iran's most celebrated filmmakers, Jafar Panahi, has spent the last quarter of a century in conflict with the Iranian government, which objects to his films' criticisms of their actions and the wider social conditions in the country, and has both arrested him several times and banned him from making films for twenty years - which hasn't stopped him. His latest, It Was Just an Accident, won the 2025 Palme d'Or, and tells the story of former political prisoners who capture a man they suspect was their torturer. It's a brilliant thriller which, despite the gravity and darkness of its subject matter, is energetic and entertaining. It effortlessly raises both moral and practical questions - What's the right thing to do with their captive? Have they become the torturers? If they let him live, won't he just come after them again? - without entering morality play territory, neither pretending to have the answers nor admonishing its characters for their choices and emotional responses. It's a vivid expression of the lasting effect the actions of the Iranian regime have had on its people, for whom merely the suggestion that they might be able to exact revenge on their torturer causes instant emotional outbursts. We discuss all this and more, including the depiction of a lawless culture in which you're constantly expected to give bribes to get by; the filmmaking, in which no filming permits were provided and Panahi had to once again violate his filmmaking ban; the question of how ambiguous the end might be and what that means; and a comparison with American cinema in Trump's America and the question of what might be happening under ICE, the immigration enforcement agency that's expanded into a neo-paramilitary force over the last year. It Was Just an Accident is a magnificent film. See it. Recorded on 10th December 2025.

Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. BÄSTA UTLÄNDSKA FILM: ”DET VAR BARA EN OLYCKA”Trots sitt mångåriga yrkesförbud har Jafar Panahi återigen lyckats skapa en film där humor och allvar möts för att berätta en historia om dagens Iran och om de som vågar göra motstånd. P1 Kultur korar ”Det var bara en olycka” till årets bästa utländska film, med motiveringen: ”'Det var bara en olycka' är en komedi om en tragedi, en iransk film som målmedvetet rusar fram i ett landskap som verkar röra sig bakåt. Den är hoppfull som en bröllopsklänning i en fängelsecell, en svordom i kyrkan, en ring på vattnet.”BÄSTA SVENSKA FILM: ”KEVLARSJÄL”Ungdomar kämpar för sina liv i samhällets utkanter i ”Kevlarsjäl” – en omskakande skildring av två bröder i en vuxenvärld som sviker. Den debuterade långfilmsregissören Maria Eriksson-Hecht (”Tunna blå linjen”) har gjort årets bästa svenska film, enligt P1 Kultur. Hör regissören själv kommentera utnämningen....

Tom and guests Arifa Akbar and Nick Hilton consider Paddington The Musical. It's the latest step for a beloved British institution... How does he work on stage? Is the bear believable? Are the songs memorable?Iranian director Jafar Panahi's latest film has won the Palme d'Or. It Was Just An Accident, straddles a difficult gap between political commentary and a lightly comic look at revenge. He had to make this film in secret and has just been sentenced - in absentia - to a prison sentence by the Iranian authorities for "propaganda activities" against the country.In The War Between the Land and the Sea, the latest offshoot of the Whoniverse, Russell Tovey plays a humble admin assistant who is promoted to humanity's Ambassador when the Sea Devils return and decide that humans need to be taught respect for their watery world.

Evan is back! We're happy to have him. First up is Megan's solo turn on HAMNET (2:19), director Chloé Zhao's adaptation of Maggie O'Farrell's novel (with a screenplay by Zhao and O'Farrell), a historical drama about Anne Hathaway and William Shakespeare's marriage following the tragic death of their 11-year-old son. Then Evan, Megan, and Dave talk about Paul Thomas Anderson's ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER (15:16), but Dave is called away mid-conversation by a child in need (one of his, not some rando who wandered in from the hinterlands). Evan and Megan pick up the conversation and then discuss writer-director Jafar Panahi's latest, the nakedly anti-authoritarian thriller IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT (42:09), which won the Palme d'Or at Cannes and is France's submission for Best International Feature Film at the 2026 Academy Awards. Over on Patreon, we talk about our poll winner, the 2013 summer movie THE WAY WAY BACK.

Hope Hopkinson talks to filmmaker Jafar Panahi about his Palme d'Or winning film, It Was Just An Accident.  The story begins when Vahid (Vahid Mobasseri), a mechanic in a Tehran garage, is visited by Eghbal (Ebrahim Azizi) whose car has been in an accident. The distinctive squeak of Eghbal's prosthetic leg makes Vahid suspect the stranger is the sadist who tortured him in prison. Those suspicions are enough for Vahid to take Eghbal captive and dig him a grave in the desert. What follows is a riveting moral thriller that unflinchingly addresses censorship, authoritarianism and human rights abuses, powered throughout by a relentless momentum and the indelible craft of a master auteur. Yet it is also a film that contrives to be deeply and movingly humane, not least in the way it derives dark humour from its knotty scenario.  Subscribe on Apple Podcasts. Follow us on Spotify.

On the penultimate CineSkinny episode of the year, we've got three absolute bangers for you. First up, we take a look at Palme d'Or-winner It Was Just an Accident, Jafar Panahi's powerful moral drama that just got him another unjust jail sentence from the Iranian regime.  Another moral crusader who's been a thorn in his corrupt nation's side is journalist Seymour Hersh. His extraordinary career as an investigative reporter is documented by Laura Poitras and Mark Obenhaus in Cover-Up. And finally, we review Sentimental Value, Joachim Trier's exquisite and expansive drama examining generational trauma and burning resentment within a Norwegian family.  CHAPTERS: What We've Been Watching: The Running Man, Field of Dreams, RoboCop (2:45) It Was Just an Accident review (12:50) Cover-Up review (30:05) Sentimental Value review (47:33) If you like The Cineskinny, tell your pals!

1) Guerra in Ucraina: a Mosca l'emissario della Casa Bianca Witkoff offre a Putin la Pax Americana basata sulla legge del più forte. 2) Gaza, crimini di guerra contro i giornalisti. I principali sindacati della stampa portano Israele davanti alla giustizia francese. 3) Honduras, come ai tempi di Pablo Escobar. Donald Trump ha ordinato la scarcerazione dell'ex presidente Juan Orlando Hernandez condannato a 43 anni di carcere per aver inondato gli Stati Uniti di cocaina. 4) Guai quasi insormontabili per Pedro Sanchez. Il premier socialista sta affrontando una grave crisi politica e giudiziaria. Il punto di Esteri. 5) Stop di Olanda e Gran Bretagna al finanziamento del mega progetto della Total in Mozambico. La multinazionale sotto accusa per un massacro di civili nei pressi di un impianto di estrazione e liquefazione del gas. 6) In Iran un semplice incidente costa un anno di carcere. Il regista Jafar Panahi, celebrato all'estero, subisce l'ennesima condanna in patria. 7) Rubrica sportiva. Dal barcone dei migranti alla nazionale spagnola. La favolosa storia di Edna Imade.

Quién no conoce la Historia está condenado a repetirla. O algo así. Por eso son pertinentes películas como Nuremberg con Rami Malek, Russell Crowe y Michael Shannon. Además Flores para Antonio o Alba Flores enfrentando el recuerdo de su padre; Singular con Patricia López Arnaiz y Javier Rey; La voz de Hind la película que conmueve al público en todo el mundo recordando una trágica historia real; Blue Moon de Richard Linklater con Ethan Hawke y Margareth Qualley; Crimson Gold de Jafar Panahi.

Han har återigen lyckats skapa en film där humor och allvar möts i en berättelse om dagens Iran. Saman Bakhtiari har träffat Jafar Panahi, bioaktuell med Guldpalmsvinnaren Det var bara en olycka som utsetts till Frankrikes Oscarsbidrag. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app.

All treats and no tricks for you in this packed Halloween edition of Breakfast All Day. Here's what we've got: NOUVELLE VAGUE: Richard Linklater recreates the making of the French New Wave classic "Breathless" with a movie that looks like it could have come out in 1960, as well. You don't need to know anything about Jean-Luc Godard, or Jean Seberg, or Jean-Paul Belmondo to enjoy this affectionate and humorous homage, but there are Easter eggs galore if you do. In theaters before streaming on Netflix Nov 14. SHELBY OAKS (With William Bibbiani): Our good friend Bibbs joins in on a review of this horror debut from longtime YouTube film critic Chris Stuckmann. It follows a woman investigating the disappearance of her sister, who was a paranormal investigator, in a small Ohio town. In theaters. HEDDA: Tessa Thompson is impossibly charismatic in this bold reimagining of the classic Henrik Ibsen play "Hedda Gabler." Nia DaCosta's adaptation is queer and multiracial in ways that are reminiscent of "Bridgerton." The cinematography and production design are gorgeous, but see it for the clothes alone. Streaming on Prime Video. IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT: This will end up being a major contender in the awards conversation. Iranian master Jafar Panahi tells the story of several disparate people who come together to abduct and confront the man they believe was their torturer in prison. It's tense and beautifully acted, with an unexpected streak of absurd humor. In theaters. MOVIE NEWS LIVE!: Our travels have kept us from doing our movie news livestream for the past couple weeks, so it was nice to be together again. Among the topics we discussed were the upcoming "Stranger Things" finale, "Sinners" and "K-Pop Demon Hunters" back in theaters, Osgood Perkins Day, and Francis Ford Coppola auctioning off his watch collection. We're gone next week but back Nov. 14. Thanks for being here! Subscribe to Christy's Saturday Matinee newsletter: https://christylemire.beehiiv.com/

This year, Iranian director Jafar Panahi won the Palme d'Or at Cannes for his extraordinary new film, “It Was Just an Accident,” which he shot secretly in Tehran under great risk of serious harm. Jafar has been in prison twice on charges of “anti-government propaganda” as well as for protesting the imprisonment of other filmmakers. At this year's Toronto International Film Festival, he joined Tom Power to tell us how “It Was Just an Accident” was shaped by his two experiences in Tehran's Evin Prison.Fill out our listener survey here.

Jafar Panahi siempre ha practicado un cine de resistencia. El autor iraní, encarcelado y perseguido en su país durante años, conquistó la Palma de Oro en Cannes con 'Un simple accidente', una tragicomedia que une enredo, humor y una reflexión sobre la justicia y la venganza. La analizamos a fondo en este episodio, junto al resto de estrenos, como 'La caza de brujas' de Julia Roberts, el banquete de Franco en una comedia antifascista o el nuevo fenómeno del terror en EEUU, 'Good Boy'. En 30 minutos os ponemos al día de todo.

"It Was Just An Accident" is a thriller film written and directed by legendary Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi. The film is a co-production between Iran, Luxembourg, and France, the latter selecting it as the country's official submission for Best International Feature Film at the 98th Academy Awards. The film explores political repression in Iran and morality as a group of former political prisoners kidnap their torturer and decide what to do with him. Panahi, who is critical of the Iranian government and has been imprisoned several times, made the film without official filming permission from the Iranian authorities. The film had its world premiere at the main competition of the 78th Cannes Film Festival, where it received universal acclaim and won the prestigious Palme d'Or. Panahi and editor Amir Etminan were kind enough to spend some time speaking with us about their work and experience making the film, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now playing in theaters from NEON. Thank you, and enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...

From documentaries such as Cover-Up, another riveting portrait made by Laura Poitras and Mark Obenhaus, to international dramas, like Jafar Panahi's Palme d'Or winning It Was Just an Accident or Oliver Laxe's divisive and hellish rave, Sirāt, there's always a vast array of filmmaking styles on display.

Julia Roberts toma la cartelera con un thriller moral y provocativo que da para encendidas conversaciones. Es la protagonista de 'Caza de brujas', la nueva película de Luca Guadagnino sobre el consentimiento, el privilegio y el poder, y con ambos hemos charlado. Además, hay mucho terror con diferentes propuestas y la flamante Palma de Oro de Jafar Panahi. 'Un simple accidente' es una sátira fantástica para hablar de justicia, venganza y perdón. Del cine español, llega la comedia 'La Cena' con Alberto San Juan y Mario Casas, el drama de Daniel Guzmán en 'La deuda' y el documental de Leiva. En televisión, nos rendimos a 'Mr. Scorsese', la docuserie del gran maestro del cine, y comentamos un true crime bien hecho, 'El monstruo de Florencia'.

Ep. 355: Jafar Panahi on It Was Just an Accident Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, with your host, Nicolas Rapold. This year during the New York Film Festival, I was extremely fortunate to speak with Jafar Panahi, director of It Was Just an Accident. The story concerns a prison survivor who runs into the man he believes to be his former tormenter, leading him to take action and reconnect with others. Panahi's outstanding film won the Palme d'Or at Cannes this year, after years of government bans of one kind or another on his filmmaking and freedoms. Through a translator I spoke with Panahi about It Was Just an Accident and especially the enduring philosophical issues raised by its characters living under a repressive regime. It Was Just an Accident opens in theaters on October 15. My thanks to the translator for making the conversation possible. (Please note that because of recording circumstances, the audio of my questions is only in English.)

The legendary filmmakers discussed Panahi's childhood, early days of filmmaking, his relationship with Abbas Kiarostami, the rebellious nature of his work, his 2025 Palme d'Or winner, and much more. Thank you to interpreter Sheida Dayani. It Was Just An Accident opens at Film at Lincoln Center on October 15 with Panahi in person.

This key figure in the Iranian New Wave, one of only four filmmakers ever awarded the top prize at each of the three biggest European film festivals, reflects on his cinematic critiques of Iranian society, continuing to work even after being jailed by the regime and then banned from making films under the threat of being sent back to jail, and how his own experience with a prison interrogator partially inspired his latest film, which won Cannes' Palme d'Or in May and was just chosen as France's entry for the best international feature Oscar race.
