| | |  | IRAN | Home » » Iron Island | | | | | | | Description: | | Moored a few hundred yards off the Persian coast, a derelict oil tanker has become a thriving home for cast-off members of Iran's Sunni-Arab minority. "As long as I-Ým with you," says Captain Nemat, proud patriarch of Iron Island's floating shanty-town, "you shouldn't worry about a thing." But when the ship's owners announce they intend to sell Nemat's fiefdom for scrap, and the ad hoc community's on-board teacher discovers that the ship is slowly sinking, the captain must provide his people with a future, while preserving the peace and upholding the law in the present. With his brash young prot+ªg+ª (Beautiful City-Ýs Hossein Farzi-Zadeh) risking shipboard harmony and his own life in a forbidden romance, Captain Nemat finds his authority and his humanity tested to the breaking point. | | | Features: | |

A heart felt masterpiece in terms of human wants and challenging callingsMar 05, 2010
By Damian D. Aranda
"Student Recording Kid"
I liked the ( at first claustrophobic portions ) of the film. Fundamentals of coexistence and people with strong personalities keep this film colorfull. The strong character that plays the captain could be wright or wrong in many senses and that's what is left up to the viewer to decide or not to decide to take sides when experiencing just about every single characters motives in this film.

Incredible journey in symbolismDec 06, 2006
By V. V. Vo
"V.V. Vo"
first off, I would like to say this from a viewer of independent movies globally.
If you are like me, always open to opportunities to experience a foriegn movie and its esoteric symbologies and creative spirit, this is a movie to have for your collective collection.
that said, I genuinely was moved by the capacity in which such a movie by M.R. can have in captivating for me these trying times in which your dreams are probably the last freedom you may have in the Western traditional culture.
cultivate an open dialogue with yourself after viewing this magnificent portayal of human bonding and sacrifice, and add to the response that I hope will follow in the reviews. it is a gem of the alchemist. a transforming microcosm of drama, and the human drama of Love, Life and the pursuit of happiness.
