It Was Just An Accident at GFT
Saturday 11 October, 2025 at 5.20 p.m.
Jafar Panahi’s critically acclaimed and deserving Palme d’Or winner is a muscular thriller and an engaging morality tale for our times.
A minor traffic accident reunites two men with a shared past. One is set on revenge, but then doubts set in. Panahi (Crimson Gold, 3 Faces, No Bears) opens his film as a languid and at times gently humorous road trip, with the actions of each participant keenly observed. However, it is also a critique of the enduring legacy of a regime on its people and the chilling consequences for those who oppose it.
Farsi with English subtitles.
This screening is part of BFI London Film Festival in partnership with American Express. Check out our full LFF 2025 season
