Director: Jafar Panahi

Cast: Vahid Mobasseri, Mariam Afshari, Hadis Pakbaten, Majid Panahi 

Rating: PG13

Vahid, an unassuming mechanic, is suddenly reminded of his time in an Iranian prison when he has a chance encounter with Eghbal, a man he strongly suspects to be his sadistic jailhouse captor. Panicked, Vahid rounds up a few of his fellow ex-prisoners to try and confirm Eghbal's identity. Master filmmaker Jafar Panahi creates a deeply felt moral thriller, where high stakes tension combines with unexpected flurries of humour and thoughtful, sometimes devastating questions regarding persecution and revenge.

Sold out at the Singapore International Film Festival 2025, Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi's Palme d'Or winning film It Was Just An Accident is a worthy follow-up to an impressive body of work including Taxi Tehran, This Is Not A Film, 3 Faces and many more. In Accident, Panahi revisits his own experience being incarcerated in Iran for his work as a dissident filmmaker and asks the pertinent question: what if he met his captors after he was released? How would he feel, and more pertinently, what would he do?
