Description:Stories of four women who are struggling against the blatant sexism.
Review: The film makes an indelible impression. Know that these words – it’s a cliche, but there’s nothing I can do with them. None of the Middle Eastern Film didn’t impress me so much, and I think, in any movie, the fate of Iranian women was shown with such force. Cinema, like most Iranian paintings, very simple and unpretentious, even in form, but when you look, you begin to realize that the formal delights at all such nonsense. The film tells the story of several characters, moving from one to the other as if in a circle. All the stories are very simple and completely removed without any strain, but actually grab to the soul.
