Today is a 2014 Iranian drama film directed by Reza Mirkarimi. It was screened in the Contemporary World Cinema section at the 2014 Toronto International Film Festival. It was selected as the Iranian entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 87th Academy Awards, but was not nominated.
In a review for Variety, Dennis Harvey wrote,"Taking its cue from that no-nonsense protag (and in contrast to the atypically rich palate of MirkarimiâÂÂs previous film, A Cube of Sugar), Today is terse and unadorned in nearly all aspects. That rigor lends slow-burning impact to a story (and in particular an ending) that might easily have been played for mawkish sentimentality. Houman BehmaneshâÂÂs crisp lensing is the dominant element in the professionally assembled package; thereâÂÂs no music at all until a bedside conversation provides some belated emotional release for the two leads, its poignancy aptly underlined by Amin HonarmandâÂÂs score."
