HIT THE ROAD (93')

HIT THE ROAD
dir. Panah Panahi
IR, 2021, 93’

A chaotic, tender family is on a road trip across a rugged landscape, but to where? In the back seat, Dad has a broken leg, but is it really broken? Mom tries to laugh when she is not holding back tears. The kid keeps exploding into car karaoke. Only the mysterious older brother is quiet. Reminiscent of Little Miss Sunshine, Panah Panahi’s debut feature premiered at Directors’ Fortnight in Cannes.
