“There is No Evil” is an Iranian film by Mohammad Rasoulof about the
political and existential toll capital punishment takes in his country.
Made without the permission of censors, this film and earlier ones by
Rasoulof in the same vein led to a five year prison term. While the
sentence is being appealed, just as had been the case with his fellow
director Jafar Panahi, Rousolof remains under house arrest. Panahi and
Rasoulof represent the most uncompromising wing of the Iranian film
industry and thus forced to operate secretly. Panahi is the most
well-known of these rebels, with a body of work that also marks him as a
great filmmaker. “There is No Evil”, the first film by Rasoulof I have
seen, now distinguishes him also a key member of the film industry’s
resistance to censorship and the clerical dictatorship that imposes it.
