On the contrary, in this colourful and cheerful fresco of society, controversial issues are brought up – especially concerning the various cultural differences and the different ways of understanding marriage and love relationships in general – but everything is done in an ironic way, through a skilful script that sees numerous misunderstandings and paradoxes as its most important peculiarities.Houchang Allahyari’s camera, for its part, aims at a mise-en-scene as realistic as possible – interestingly, the director himself, who before turning to the seventh art worked mainly as a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, has always been fascinated by Italian Neorealism and Post Neorealism, with a predilection for the cinema of Pier Paolo Pasolini – with frequent singing, dancing and scenes of common joy that take place now inside the hotel, now in some Viennese pub.
