Two fugitives in contemporary Iran encounter citizens across the country, all wounded by the same corrupt government and all united in their willingness to help the pair survive.

Delaram matches graceful storytelling with intentionally hazy storytelling, as both his characters head to an unknown but with a purpose.

By stripping him away from the political archetype of the censored artist, Achilles is able to explore the costs of creative repression on an individual scale.

Rated: B+

What makes Achilles so awkward is Delaram’s ambivalence regarding protest and resistance. The film is an odd mix of righteous anger and utter futility.

Asian Movie Pulse

Delaram's inexperience in feature filmmaking does become evident, as the movie unfolds more like two different ones forcibly joined together than a compact one, with the first definitely being on a much higher level

Rated: 5.5

Caimán Cuadernos de Cine

A film, in short, that is committed to what it represents and that treasures images so that they do not fall into oblivion. [Full review in Spanish]
