Spect.Viewers are deeply moved by 'Tatami,' praising its intense narrative and the powerful portrayal of a female Iranian judoka's struggle against oppressive political forces. The film's black and white cinematography and the emotional depth of the performances have been highlighted as particularly striking. Despite some finding the judo scenes lengthy and the political message overt, the film's engaging storyline and its depiction of resilience and defiance resonate strongly with audiences.
👍 The removal of the turban as a symbol of defiance was a standout moment.
👎 Judo scenes may feel prolonged for some viewers.

Synopsis
Iranian female judoka Leila and her coach Maryam, who travel to the Judo World Championship, intent on bringing home Iran's first gold medal. Midway through the competition, they receive an ultimatum from the Islamic Republic ordering Leila to fake an injury and lose. With her own and her family's freedom at stake, Leila is faced with an impossible choice: feign injury and comply with the Iranian regime as Maryam implores her to do, or defy them both and fight on, for the gold.

Pfouah, un chef d’œuvre, de l’intensité tout du long. Politique et poétique, belle réalisation en noir et blanc.
"La DA du film et les plans sont incroyables, vraiment rien à dire, mais certains passages m’ont laissée un peu perplexe.. "
