Jafar Panahi’s It Was Just an Accident is a gripping moral thriller and darkly human road-movie that garnered international acclaim after winning the Palme d’Or at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival - one of the most prestigious honours in world cinema.
Co-produced by Iran, France, and Luxembourg, the film follows a former political prisoner who believes he has encountered the torturer who once harmed him. What begins as a simple roadside incident quickly spirals into a tense, ethically charged journey of doubt, vengeance and collective memory as he and others wrestle with the question of justice and forgiveness.
Bold, poignant and politically resonant, It Was Just an Accident confronts personal trauma and societal wounds with both lyrical nuance and narrative tension, underscoring Panahi’s role as a fearless voice in contemporary world cinema.
“A masterpiece of moral tension and quiet fury.”
— The Guardian
“A searing, humanist triumph.”
— Rotten Tomatoes
