This fiction-documentary hybrid uses a sensational real-life event--the arrest of a young man on charges that he fraudulently impersonated well-known filmmaker Mohsen Makhmalbaf--as the basis for a stunning, multilayered investigation into movies, identity, artistic creation, and existence, in which the real people from the case play themselves.

Something similar to what Stanley Kubrick experienced, or at least people who thought they were in touch with Kubrick, was also experienced by an Iranian director. This case then became the subject of this film, a film that is partly scripted, partly documentary, where it's very difficult to distinguish that boundary. It’s an interesting subject, but it failed to draw me in.
