Divorced father Rahim has spent years in prison for failing to pay a debt, but there seems to be a solution to his problems: a lost handbag containing some gold coins. A decision is made to return the bag to its rightful owner for selfish reasons. Overnight, the likeable but hapless Rahim becomes a media hero, hopelessly entangled in his own lies. Two-time Oscar winner Asghar Farhadi unpacks a moral dilemma with characteristic finesse while cutting a swathe through celebrity culture. “A Hero” was co-winner of the Grand Prix in Cannes.
