Law of Tehran

About This Movie

So, 'Law of Tehran' is this gritty action-crime-drama that really puts you in the thick of Tehran's underbelly. Samad, the narcotics officer, is portrayed with a kind of hardened realism that feels true to life—he's had enough of the lies and games from drug dealers, which you can feel in every scene. The pacing is tight, keeping you on edge as he chases down the elusive Nasser Khakzad. They do some interesting things with practical effects, which gives it a grounded feel. The atmosphere is definitely intense, and the streets of Tehran almost become a character in their own right. There’s a certain rawness to the performances that stands out, particularly in how it captures the moral ambiguity of its characters.

Focuses on the harsh realities of drug enforcement. · Distinctive use of Tehran's urban landscape. · Strong character dynamics between Samad and Hamid.
