About The Heart Wants It Itself
Firouzeh and her friend Dekhi work in the Shofar Cafe. Firouzeh is interested in a ignorant man named Javad who is in debt to the cafe owner. But, Firouzeh sees she has options when she gets to know Abram, the driver of the famous rich Shahriar Shahriari. Shahriari, who is the managing director of a large company, hates women and spends all his time working. In the cafe, it is rumored that Shahriari is interested in Firouzeh, and Abram informs the newspapers that Firouzeh is Shahriari's wife candidate.
Directed by Syamak Yasami, The Heart Wants It Itself leans on a strong ensemble — Manoochehr Vossoogh, Homayoon, Rooholah Mofidi — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about romance titles of 1973.
