Offside

Although its message is deadly serious, Offside is almost lighthearted, filled with wit and winning characters.""""
- G. Allen Johnson, San Francisco Chronicle
Exhilarating, exuberant and drolly funny.""""
- Carey Rickey, Philadelphia Inquirer
The delicately subversive [director] Mr. Panahi makes his subjects perfectly clear -- the stupidity of authority, and the hypocrisy of discrimination. Offside is surprisingly entertaining, and edifying to boot."" ""
- Joe Moregenstern, Wall Street Journal
