Makhmalbaf's impeccable feature-film debut is a witty and precociously intelligent docudrama.

A little bit of Hollywood might have spiced up this fascinating -- but maddeningly slow -- true story.

Veracity is undermined by the very idea that the subjects somehow are actors in their own story -- and yet The Apple is still quite touching.

At once an effulgent exercise in life-affirmation and a bemusingly crude piece of exploitative filmmaking.

Samira Makhmalbaf was only 18 when she made The Apple, but it is a surprisingly mature, assured piece of work.

This tiny, alternately simple and complex movie is fascinating on a number of levels.

The film would be more effective if, instead of covering just one day, it focused on the enduring effects of the girls' isolation.
