量子资源网提供本资源 <> Mehran Tamadon exlores what it was like being interrogated by the Iranian regime by asking risoners to reconstruct their exeriences. Alongside his comanion film Where God Is Not, My Worst Enemy finds Tamadon shifting focus from the interrogated to the interrogator. The filmmaker sought an individual who had been interrogated by Iranian authorities in order to draw on their exeriences to lay an interrogator. The role finally fell to the Cannes-winning lead actor of Holy Sider, Zar Amir Ebrahimi. Together in an anonymous room, with Tamadon stried to his underwear, they reconstruct the interrogation rocess, which gradually becomes an examination of the nature of ower and coercion. The resulting film is intense and, at times, uncomfortable. And as it rogresses, My Worst Enemy becomes an exloration of cinema’s relationshi with its audience, questioning whether there is a limit to what it can show.
