Beautifully realized parable from Iranian director Majid Majidi (who also directed "Children of Heaven"). Yusef, a university professor who was blinded as an early teenager, regains the ability to see thirty some years later. Emotionally powerful and complex, "The Willow Tree" (Persian/French) suffers only slightly when the story needs to unfold.
