The Circle (Dayereh)
Director:Jafar Panahi
Banned by the Iranian government, this masterfully crafted and deeply affecting film found an
international audience after winning top honors at the Venice Film Festival. This is an honest,
disturbing look at the plight of ordinary Iranian women dealing with institutionalized political and
sexual repression. "The most talented disciple of Iranian master Abbas Kiarostami, Panahi actually
tops him at leaving things out of a story to tantalize the viewer...You can't afford to miss this"
(Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader). In Farsi with English subtitles.
