.\"Neghab\" (Mask) is a well-made film and full of surprises. Besides good entertainment, it also offers some food for thought and speculation. And as we don\'t want to spoil the fun of those who will still come to see the film, we will here devote ourselves to speculation and leave the hard facts for you to detect on your next visit to the cinema.

First Impression -- Neghab is the story of an unhappy marriage, Iranian style, which means that a young man and woman marry after a short acquaintance, the women obviously not giving any thought to the question of what she will do once she turns into a housewife, and a young man who soon turns into a violent bully. Predictably and practically from the beginning, their married life is hellish. And we begin to regret spending money and valuable time on the film: Haven\'t we seen this before, at least a thousand times? The large, tear-filled eyes of the young wife, the angry behavior of the husband, the seeming incapacity of Iranian film couples to have a meaningful relationship are all too familiar plots, even if the tale is set in Dubai.
