| Film Details |
Ali (Rafi Pitts) alleviates the stresses of working nights by spending time with his family and hunting in the forests north of Tehran. However tragedy strikes when Ali's wife is accidentally killed in a police shoot-out with political demonstrators. Ali's own search for his missing six-year-old daughter ends in horror, which pushes him over the edge and he randomly shoots and kills two policemen. When Ali is captured by two bickering cops the line between hunter and hunted blurs. A stylish and engrossing thriller from the director of “It's Winter”, “The Hunter” evokes the films of Jean-Pierre Melville and the iconic American political thrillers of the 70s.
