CIFF Pick: Goodbye Solo
RSSS

The Cleveland International Film Festival kicks off in just one week.  At the top of my list of must-see movies is Ramin Bahrani’s Goodbye Solo.  Last year, Slumdog Millionaire or Rachel Getting Married were called movies that defined the Obama era.  Bahrani, an Iranian American born in North Carolina, is a filmmaker whose films heralded this paradigm shift years before with his films about culture and identity in America.

Bahrani’s Goodbye Solo, along with Man Push Cart (2005) and Chop Shop (2007), will screen at CIFF in the “Someone to Watch” program. For screening times, visit ClevelandFilm.org.
