Beyond history

   As I told you before "Sean penn's Puzzle" tries to make a conversation with an absent soul. The movie goes beyond history...all of its historical shots are the visual-cells of a creative mind who wants to discover himself by a kind of improvization through history. this movie is surreal, fun and reminds me Zhigavertov and Alain Renais at the same time.(Jose Alvarez )

History's Chaos

Seeing "Sean Penn's Puzzle" without considering history as a chaotic phenomenon is an absurd work. The shots of Rosa Parks, Emma Goldman,JFK,Martin Luther King,etc as the leading roles of modern soceity, beside Mossadegh and Takhti,etc, makes a mosaic of history that needs interpretations to get its signs and symbols. (Edward Mckee)

Sean Penn's Puzzle

 This film is challenging our looking style to  story-telling, plot, and classical portrait of actors,etc. It's very exotic and ofcourse a tribute to Sean penn. ( Edward Mckee)

Sean Penn's Puzzle

  The movie's gonna make a kind of conversation with Sean Penn. It's not a tribute to him. It's about a creative absent soul, who's gonna find a friend , a half of his lost soul , through an odyssey. ( Jose Alvarez )

Sean penn's Puzzle

   Neither native nor naive, the movie wants to be a modern syntax, a symbolic combination of the strange pictures could be interpret personally by the spectators, at the age of globalization. ( Jean claude Serra)

Sean Penn Puzzl
