As quoted from Culture Monster, "What's less certain, however, is Neshat's storytelling abilities. Reviews of the film have skewed slightly negative, with Variety complaining that the movie's visuals "are more successful that structure and rationale." Rich in symbolism, Neshat's film visuals are described by Screen Daily, the film is as equally stunning as it appears in her installation artwork: perfectly framed and dominated by black and white imagery with the hint of muted colors. Motivated by the political movement in Iran, the exiled Iranian video artist stands proud and strong behind her first feature film. Neshat along with her creative team wore green, which is the unofficial protest color following the recent election. Undoubtedly, she gain admiration and won the best director award at the Venice Film Festival 2009.
