The best film of the 1990s is Life and Nothing More, aka And Life Goes On (the original Farsi title is Zendegi va digar hich), an Iranian faux-documentary directed by Abbas Kiarostami in 1991. It's the middle installment of his unplanned "Koker Trilogy" (which recently has been released on DVD and Blu-ray by the Criterion collection), bookended by Where is My Friend's House? (1987) and Through the Olive Trees (1994). It's about a filmmaker who returns to the remote village where he filmed a children's movie in 1991 in order to learn whether they survived the devastating 1990 earthquake that killed 30,000 people.
