ARTS & OPINION'S FILM REVIEW GUIDELINES

We are looking to review deserving films that merit greater exposure: in particular, films from Iran or China. Also general essays on Iranian or Chinese film.

The films do not necessarily have to be current.

Don't give the plot away.

Tell us how the film might affect the (re)viewer, emotionally, intellectually.

We want to know why the film was made, what it tells of the political climate or culture in which it is set.

Try to keep the review under 800 words.
