About this episode
Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi tackles taboo topics in his work. The 2025 Palm D'Or winner and Academy award nominated IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT fits right in with his filmography as it depicts a mechanic who is reminded of his time in an Iranian prison when he encounters a man he suspects of being his sadistic jailor. Our hosts share their thoughts on the film & then run down all the movie trailers shown during the cultural event that was the 2026 Super Bowl.
