习近平主席于今明两天访问伊朗，这是中国国家主席时隔14年再次访伊。
说起伊朗，大家都会想起他们的电影。伊朗电影的质量之高，令人赞叹，更是有阿巴斯·基阿鲁斯达米这样的电影大师。
我们今天请著名影评人、《中国日报》专栏作家周黎明先生来为我们解读一下伊朗电影。
不同于好莱坞
When the 2011 Iranian filmA Separationswept across the international cinema land scape winning a string of major kudos, it also swept many Chinese cinephiles off their feet.
2011年伊朗电影《一次别离》席卷了国际电影市场并获得了一连串的褒奖，它也使得很多中国影迷为之神魂颠倒。
Here is a movie that cost a mere $300,000 and tells a simple tale of two families, an antithesis to the glamour of screen portrayals, but it sheds light on a country with its education, religion, class, gender roles, among others.
这部仅仅花费了30万美元的电影讲述了一个有关两个家庭的简单故事，展现的是屏幕形象魅力的对立面，但它揭示了一个国家的教育、宗教、阶级、性别角色等问题。
Best of all, it is a gentle probe into the core of humanity, making it accessible to those with no knowledge to the country where the movie was made, or even to those hostile to it.
最重要的是，这部电影温和地探究到了人性深处,并将之呈现给了不了解伊朗甚至仇视伊朗的人们。
While many are ignorant about the country per se, they are fascinated by what Iranian filmmakers have to offer – something that is the opposite of Hollywood blockbusters.
很多人忽略了这个国家本身，他们被伊朗电影制作人所拍摄的与好莱坞大片不同的内容所吸引。
Iranian films are often about families and friends, daily routines that do not lend readily to screen dramatization.
伊朗电影描述的通常是家庭、朋友以及不容易产生戏剧冲突的日常生活。
Yet many of these works are engrossing because they show the microscopic nuances of human dynamics within these limited ranges.
但很多这样的作品却是引人入胜的，因为它们在这些有限的范围内表现出了人类行为微观上的细微差异。
电影大师阿巴斯
Abbas Kiarostami is an Iranian film master who is held in very high regard in China. Scholarly pieces and volumes have been devoted to the analysis and appreciation of his films, includingTaste of CherryandThe Wind Will Carry Us.
阿巴斯·基阿鲁斯达米是在中国受到很高评价的伊朗电影大师。很多学术作品都致力于分析鉴赏他的电影，包括《樱桃的滋味》和《随风而逝》。
It can be challenging for the uninitiated to sit through an Abbas film, which is not strong on plot, to say the least.
让一个外行人看完整部阿巴斯的电影是极具挑战性的，因为至少它的故事情节性不强。
But those who love him have discovered a vast world of its own.
但是喜欢阿巴斯的人已经发现了一个广阔的世界。
Other than films, poems and photographs of the master have also graced Chinese pages and galleries.
除了电影，这位大师的诗句和照片也在中国的网页和画廊受到欢迎。
平淡却最纯粹
Iran also has movies that are not abstruse, but rather, deceptively simple and poignantly humanistic.
伊朗也有不那么难理解的电影，但看似简单却有着强烈的人文意味。
The 1997 family dramaChildren of Heaven, often translated asSmall Shoesin Chinese, has warmed many Chinese hearts.
1997年的家庭剧情片《天堂的孩子》，通常也译作《小鞋子》温暖了很多中国人的心。
It is about a boy from a disenfranchised family who lost his little sister’s shoes and went through many adventures for a pair of replacement.
它讲述了一个来自被剥夺了公民权家庭的小男孩丢失了妹妹的鞋子之后为得到一双新鞋子历尽磨难的故事。
On the Chinese website douban for reviews, the movie has a score of 9.1, averaged from over 100,000 viewers.
在中国的豆瓣网上，这部电影在超过10万人的观众中平均评分高达9.1。
着眼于最真挚的人性
Zhang Yang, a Chinese film director, used Iranian cinema as a reference point: “I feel that you do not need to choose an anti-social or political subject to stand out, but rather, to discover the humanity in daily routines and trivialities, the kind of small things one takes for granted, and that will elevate you to a higher artistic status.”
一位叫张扬的中国电影导演，使用伊朗电影作为参考。“我觉得没有必要选择反社会或者强调政治敏感的主题，而应该着力于发现日常生活和琐事中的人性，这类被认为是理所当然的小事恰恰能够将你送到一个新的艺术高度。”
