Téhéran tabou

Ali Soozandeh

Germany/Austria | V.O. Persian | 2017 | 96 min | color | Animation

The lives of three strong-willed women and a young musician cross paths in Tehran’s schizophrenic society where sex, adultery, corruption, prostitution and drugs coexist with strict religious law. In this bustling modern metropolis, avoiding prohibition has become an everyday sport and breaking taboos can be a means of personal emancipation. PA
