About The Law of Life
In a poor village, during an incident, a young farmer stands up to the village landlord. Initially, the farmers are intimidated by the landlord and try to stop the young man from continuing his struggle. But gradually, they join him, and this is when a law regarding land distribution is passed. The villagers unanimously revolt against their landlord and drive him out of their village.
Directed by Jamshid Sheibani, The Law of Life leans on a strong ensemble — Azar Shiva, Yadollah Shirandami, Ahmad Ghadakchian — 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 screen titles of 1964.
