Film: Universal Language,
March 15 - 16 at OKCMOA

  • Shortlisted for the 2025 Best International Feature Oscar, Matthew Rankin’s charming Kiarostami-inspired comedy conjures a surreal interzone somewhere between Tehran and Winnipeg, where the lives of multiple characters interweave with each other in surprising and mysterious ways.

  • In French and Farsi with English subtitles (89 minutes)

  • “Winner of the inaugural Directors’ Fortnight audience award at Cannes this year, Matthew Rankin’s follow-up to his eccentric, surreal The Twentieth Century is a gentle sort of comedy, settling us down in a reimagined Canada where Persian and French are the two official languages… and loneliness is the common currency.
