Facing a 6-year prison sentence and 20-year ban on all further filmmaking, Iranian director Jafar Panahi continues to resist. Shot on an iPhone and smuggled into the Cannes Film Festival on a hidden flash drive, Panahi documents his day-to-day life as he appeals his sentencing and grapples with increasing government threats.

Screened as part of a three-film series at Spacy highlighting Panahi’s work, including 2015’s Taxi and 2018’s Three Faces.
