Event information

A life-affirming tale of late-blooming love set in the shadow of present-day Iran. When a widow, Mahin (the wonderful Lili Farhadpour), overhears a conversation about a man of a similar age not having anyone who can cook his lunch, she determines to make a move. The outcome is as touching as it is predictable. However, when the authorities clamp down on one young woman’s failure to wear a hijab, Mahin attempts to stage a rescue. The film poignantly captures the repressive realities of the current regime under which Mahin and her taxi-driver sweetheart live, a society that wilfully mutes its people’s voices.
