Many interesting observations and points about Kiarostami's work are mentioned here and indeed there is not much to say. I just want to bring up or maybe just emphasize some points that I think they might be useful.First of I all, personally I think one shouldn't take Kiarostami's works or in general any movie so seriously and try to rationalize every thing that happens there. Kiarostami's films are very close to some sort of realism which are captured in artistic styles without any superficial attempt in amusing the audience. No surprise or emotionalizing. Also Iranian culture (even social issues), creative photography and poetic beauty are flavouring the whole set. It would be good to have some pre-knowledge about Kiarostami's cinema or Iranian culture but I am sure without that, there are much to enjoy.Second, "The wind will carry us" is a great attempt to depict the artist's philosophy of life. It is simple and complicated at the same time. Our beautiful and mysterious world, the tight connection between human and nature (animals, soil, wind, trees), our obsession with death and meaning of life and so many other unanswered questions. Here is one observation. If you are familiar with Omar Khayyám, you can see the footprints of his philosophy in the film (actually one of his poems appears at the end).Third, The location is great for the theme of the film. Kurdistan has so many locations like that which pose some unique and untouched culture even unknown in the region. The confrontation of the Kurdish and Persian culture is also one delicate side of the film though it is not the major point.Another great movie by Kiarostami.
