"Corrupted Hands"
2000
Directed by Syrus Alvand

Marriage is supposed to be a celebration, but it's a criminal enterprise for two of the characters in this Iranian heist comedy. Reminiscent of Take the Money and Run and Raising Arizona, Syrus Alvand's film follows Siamak, a wedding photographer who plans to rob his next ceremony with the help of his siblings. Unbeknownst to Siamak, his own father-in-law-to-be has enlisted a hood named Bad Nasser to tail him, and of course Nasser wants in on the loot. Farsi with English subtitles.  100 minutes.
