Iran: Death sentence.  Circumstance / شرایط (Dir. Maryam Keshavarz, 2011)
Persian and French with English Subtitles cast: Sarah Kazemy, Nikohl Boosheri =Rebellion, subculture, friendship.=
A group of young women and men defy written and unwritten laws when they band together to create a safe space for themselves in Tehran. A memorable in-your-face scene mocks state censorship of films in Iran, but in fact the footage had to be filmed, under cover, in Lebanon.
