Close-Up (Persian: نمای نزدیک, Nema-ye Nazdik) (1990) is a film directed by Iranian filmmaker Abbas Kiarostami, a docufiction. The film tells the story of the real-life trial of a man who impersonated film-maker Mohsen Makhmalbaf, conning a family into believing they would star in his new film. It features the people involved, acting as themselves. A film about human identity, it helped to increase recognition of Kiarostami in the West.

Nanni Moretti's short film Opening Day of Close-Up follows a theater owner as he prepares to show Kiarostami's film at his independent cinema.
