  • "Ostensibly an adaptation of a 12th century Persian poem about a young princess courted by two men, a nobleman and an artist, Kiarostami never shows us the film in question. Instead, we are invited to reconstruct the narrative from dialogue and sound, as well as the emotions that flash across the faces of a rapt, mostly female audience."
  • "De "film in een film" laat de film over het 12e eeuwse Perzische epische gedicht "Khosrow en Shirin" zien door middel van een film met de gezichten van vrouwen die naar de film van het gedicht kijken."
  • """Shirin shows us...an audience of more than 100 women who are deeply absorbed in watching a film we never see. We observe how the drama plays out on their faces, seen in close up, mostly one at a time....based on the powerful 12th century Persian poem by Nizami, the film-within-a-film is a story of star-crossed lovers and female self-sacrifice that is as well known in modern-day Iran as Romeo and Juliet is in the West" -- container."
