“Okay, so I should do my close-my-eyes one? What I get here? Certified Copy. All right, great. Kiarostami. I’ll take that. I haven’t seen this one. Where Is the Friend’s House? Is one of my number-one movies, so I’m very excited to see this.”

“I'll take a Kiarostami, Certified Copy. On the road, like you said.”

Pablo Larrain

“This movie, Certified Copy, by Abbas Kiarostami. It’s a very particular and small story, but shows all of his power and all of his poetry. I had the chance to meet Mr. Kiarostami when he was doing this film, and it was very moving to see how he was expressing about this idea of certain things that can be copied and other things that should never be copied because they can be copied. If you have not seen this movie, have a look.”
