Babek Ahmed Poor in Where Is My Friend's House? (Abbas Kiarostami, 1987)

Cast: Babek Ahmed Poor, Ahmed Ahmed Poor, Khodabakhsh Defaei, Iran Outari, Ait Ansari, Sadika Taohidi, Biman Mouafi, Ali Djamali, Aziz Babai, Rafia Difai. Screenplay: Abbas Kiarostami. Cinematography: Farhad Saba. Film editing: Abbas Kiarostami. Music: Amine Allah Hessine. 

I think Dickens would have liked Abbas Kiarostami's Where Is My Friend's House? It deals with one of Dickens's great subjects: the anomalous place of children in an adult world that often doesn't even hear or see them or recognize them as human beings with their own problems and concerns. It's the story of 8-year-old Ahmed (Babek Ahmed Poor), who goes to school in the village of Koker. One day the teacher berates the boy who sits next to Ahmed, Mohamed Reda (Ahmed Ahmed Poor), because he has done his homework on a piece of paper and not in the prescribed notebook. It's the third time Mohamed has done this, the teacher scolds, and the next time he'll be expelled. We can see Ahmed wincing at the treatment of Mohamed, and after school he helps the boy when he stumbles and drops his schoolbooks. When he gets home, Ahmed discovers that he has accidentally picked up Mohamed's notebook and is horrified that this means the boy will be expelled. He tells his mother that he needs to take the notebook to his friend, but she's preoccupied with doing the wash and tending to the baby, so she tells him to do his homework first and then to pick up the bread for dinner. Perplexed, Ahmed tries to do his homework but his mother keeps interrupting him to help with the baby or to carry the washbasin, constantly dismissing his insistence that it's important that he deliver the notebook. Finally, he seizes the opportunity to leave, but he knows only that Mohamed lives in the neighboring village of Poshteh, which is over the hill from Koker. So he races up the zigzag trail that takes him over the steep hill and down through the olive grove that lies outside the village. He knows Mohamed's family name is Nematzadeh, but there are lots of Nematzadehs in Poshteh, and he doesn't know which branch of the family is his friend's. Finally, he gets a lead and is told that Mr. Nematzadeh and his son have just set off for Koker. So he races back over the hill, only to be delayed in his search by his own grandfather (Rafia Difai), who sends Ahmed off to fetch his cigarettes. While Ahmed is running this errand, the grandfather expounds his theories of child-rearing to a friend: His own father, the grandfather says, would give him some money and a beating every other week, whether he deserved it or not. Sometimes, he admits, his father would forget the money, but he always remembered the beating. This, the grandfather proclaims, taught him the discipline and obedience that children today like Ahmed don't learn. Meanwhile, Ahmed, who is struggling to fulfill what he sees as his duty to his friend and his family, has learned that the boy who accompanied Mr. Nematzadeh was not Mohamed, and that the man has just started back for Poshteh, riding on a donkey. So Ahmed makes another trip over the hill, keeping Nematzadeh in sight and following him into the labyrinthine streets and alleys of Poshteh, only to discover that he has the wrong branch of the family after all. Eventually, after another misadventure, a despondent Ahmed returns home, finishes his own homework, and copies it into Mohamed Reda's notebook, which results in a well-earned happy ending. It's an excellent movie for children, but beside that, Kiarostami's screenplay, direction, and editing, and his empathy with the people and landscape of Northern Iran bring everything together into a fable about miscommunication and the difficulties of growing up. It's not as ambitious or complex as some of Kiarostami's later films, but it has their depth of feeling and brilliance of execution.

Au travers des oliviers (1994), ou les retrouvailles avec la vérité du cinéma

Contrairement aux idées reçues, le cinéma d’Abbas Kiarostami cherche moins à parler à notre intellect qu’à nos sensations, à notre cœur de spectateur désirant vibrer devant l’écran illuminé d’une salle obscure. Son grand talent consiste à manipuler le faux pour créer des émotions véritables, comme celles perceptibles à travers le regard silencieux d’un petit garçon (Où est la maison de mon ami ?) ou la méditation énigmatique d’un homme en bout de course (Le Goût de la cerise). C’est-ce que l’on retrouve avec l’excellent Au travers des oliviers, dernier volet de la trilogie dite de Koker, où l’histoire d’un film dans le film permet la mise en relief d’un réel sensible et émouvant.

Autant par acquit de conscience que par honnêteté intellectuelle, Kiarostami ne cherche pas à assujettir son spectateur à une quelconque réalité, se contentant d’accompagner le regard afin que chacun puisse établir sa propre vérité. Pour éviter toute confusion, il exhibe aux yeux de tous ses propres artifices : caméra, décors, équipe de tournage, etc. Personne n’est dupe ou prisonnier de l’illusion, et c’est ainsi que la magie du cinéma s’opère : du délicat va et vient qui se réalise entre monde réel et factice, entre peinture quotidienne et pure représentation, se dégagent de l’émotion, de l’étonnement et du questionnement. Toute la force de son cinéma se trouve là, dans sa volonté d’accompagner et de ne pas tromper, induisant les choses sans les imposer.

Dès le début, Au travers des oliviers assume son statut d’œuvre fictive en prétendant relater le tournage d’un film (celui de Et la vie continue) qui est lui-même en relation avec un autre (Où est la maison de mon ami ?). De cette double mise en abyme, qui s’expose ouvertement, émane un discours d’une limpidité effarante. Ainsi la séquence clé, qui voit la mise en scène d’un faux couple où le mari dispute sa femme pour une histoire de chaussettes, se révèle être d’une redoutable efficacité. Au gré des répétitions, l’image que l’on a de ce couple fictif s’altère, le faux est contaminé par le vrai, permettant l’émergence de l’émotion (la naissance attendrissante d’un amour maladroit) et l’ébauche de pistes de réflexion (la réunion de l’homme et de la femme sur le même plan).

Au lieu d’utiliser la mise en abyme pour surinvestir le tragique à peu de frais, Kiarostami fait mine de s’intéresser à un tournage et à des personnages afin de mieux évoquer un pays, l’Iran, et ses habitants. Ainsi, plus qu’une banale œuvre de fiction, Au travers des oliviers correspond au regard qu’il porte sur ce qui fait l’essence de son pays, à savoir sa terre, ses hommes et ses traditions. Afin de désamorcer tout égocentrisme, notre homme a l’habileté de se mettre également en scène, s’intégrant dans l’exercice de style comme pour nous signifier qu’il n’est pas le dieu de cet univers, mais simplement un homme parmi les autres.

Cette humilité revendiquée lui permet d’aller à l’essentiel, abordant le cinoche, la société et l’amour dans un même mouvement, pour causer de la vie et de rien d’autre… L’évocation de celle-ci, entre deux prises, nous touche d’autant plus que les artifices (les répétitions, les consignes données aux acteurs, etc.) n’ont rien de passionnant ni d’exaltant. Si le devant de la scène ennuie, si le spectacle ne fait guère illusion, les coulissent, elles, bouillonnent d’humanisme et de tendresse. Entre deux claps, on a le temps d’être attendri par ses enfants qui répètent leur rôle tout en oubliant leur quotidien, par cette communauté où sont traités à égalité les hommes et les femmes, les vieux et les jeunes, par cet homme qui ne sait pas faire parler son cœur et cette dame dont les années ont mis en bouche les mots qui savent apaiser…

Si la beauté et l’émotion nous submergent doucement, c’est la vérité humaine qui nous subjugue totalement. Adroitement, Kiarostami nous dépeint un monde où l’artifice n’est pas de mise : sa caméra filme sans relâche cette terre labourée par les événements, ces façades ou ces voitures usitées par le temps, comme pour témoigner de l’authenticité des lieux, donnant plus de poids à la force de ces images. Celles-ci nous révèlent alors leur vérité, troublante et émouvante. C’est celle de cet amour qui s’écrit inexorablement malgré les contraintes et qui prend la forme de deux silhouettes empruntant le même chemin sinueux, à travers les oliviers. C’est également celle qui redonne toute sa place à la femme, au cœur de l’image, lors d’une séquence de casting au cours de laquelle on dévoile leur visage et on entend leur voix, inscrivant à jamais sur la pellicule le témoignage de leur identité.

Synopsis : Une équipe de cinéma arrive dans un village au nord de l’Iran, dévasté par un tremblement de terre, pour réaliser un film intitulé Et la vie continue. Hossein, un jeune maçon est engagé comme serveur par l’équipe et joue également un petit rôle dans le film. Par le fait du hasard, sa partenaire est Farkhondé, la jeune fille du voisinage dont il est amoureux. Les parents de Farkhondé ont refusé le mariage car Hossein ne possède pas sa propre maison. Le tremblement de terre n’a laissé aucune maison intacte, les parents de la jeune fille sont morts… Au travers des oliviers, plusieurs fois, le garçon marchera obstinément pour obtenir cet amour qu’on lui refuse. Banalement, sa quête embrasse celle d’un peuple, celle d’un art, celle d’une manière digne d’être au monde.

Where Is My Friend's House? (1987), directed by Abbas Kiarostami

Cinematographer: Farhad Saba

Where Is the Friend's House?, Abbas Kiarostami (1987)

[byneddiedingo]

Farhad Kheradmand and Hossein Rezai in Through the Olive Trees (Abbas Kiarostami, 1994) Cast: Mohamad Ali Keshavarz, Farhad Kheradmand, Zarifeh Shiva, Hossein Rezai, Tahereh Ladanian, Hocine Redai, Zahra Nourouzi, Nosrat Bagheri, Azim Aziz Nia, Ostadvali Babaei, Ahmed Ahmed Poor, Babek Ahmed Poor. Screenplay: Abbas Kiarostami. Cinematography: Hossein Jafarian, Farhad Saba. Production design: Abbas Kiarostami. Film editing: Abbas Kiarostami. Music: Amir Farshid Rahimian, Chema Rosas.

  Through the Olive Trees is the concluding film in what has become known as Abbas Kiarostami's "Koker trilogy," which is made up of the neorealistic Where Is My Friend's House? (1987), the semi-documentary And Life Goes On (1992), and this lyrical, pastoral, slyly comic work. It's possible to impose a variety of shapes on the trilogy as it moves from the simple narrative of the first film, made on the eve of the 1990 earthquake that devastated northern Iran, through the anxious quest for survivors of the cast of the first film that constitutes the middle film, and into a kind of post-disaster healing that centers on both the making of a film and one of its actors' nervous, intense courtship of a young woman, also an actor in the film. Through the Olive Trees also answers a question that was raised but never answered in And Life Goes On: Did the two boys who were the focus of Where Is My Friend's House survive the quake? But like most of the questions the third film deals with, the answer is oblique or obscure to the inattentive. In this case, it's a yes: The boys, Ahmed and Babek Ahmed Poor, appear in this film bringing potted geraniums to the set of the film that's being made in post-quake Koker. Kiarostami doesn't identify them as such, but leaves the recognition to viewers familiar with the first film. In fact, it's best to watch the trilogy as a whole, as Kiarostami manages to move actors and characters around among the three films. In Through the Olive Trees, the actor/character known as Farhad is the same actor, Farhad Kheradmand, who played the director in And Life Goes On. A different actor, Mohamad Ali Keshavarz, plays the director in Through the Olive Trees. Sometimes we don't know whether we're watching actors performing in scenes for the film that's being made or the actual lives of the actors out of character -- in fact, the actors find it hard to separate the two. The third part of the trilogy is linked visually to the first by the zigzag path that people traverse to surmount the steep ridge that separates villages. And Through the Olive Trees links visually with And Life Goes On in that both films conclude with remarkable long-shot long takes in which characters from the film encounter each other at great distances from the camera.
