Universal Language

About This Movie

So, 'Universal Language' finds this weird intersection of cultures between Tehran and Winnipeg, and it's just an interesting backdrop for these quirky characters. Negin and Nazgol, with their frozen cash dilemma, are like these fish out of water trying to navigate a world that’s just as bizarre as their predicament. Massoud's walking tour feels almost like a quirky performance art piece, blending absurdity with these historical tidbits that get more chaotic as the film unfolds. The pacing has this almost dreamlike quality, fluctuating between moments of humor and deeper reflections on identity and connection. The performances feel genuine, not overly polished, which adds to the film's charm. It's just one of those films that captures a particular slice of human experience in a very peculiar way.
