Women Without Men

Streaming video - 2009

Renowned visual artist Shirin Neshat offers an exquisitely crafted view of women rights today in Iran as compared to Iran in 1953, when a British- and American-backed coup removed the democratically elected government. The film was adapted from the novel by Iranian author Shahrnush Parsipur and weaves together the stories of four individual women during those traumatic days, whose experiences are shaped by their faith and the social structures in place...Awards & Festivals:..Venice Film Festival- Silver Lion Award for Directing ..Toronto International Film Festival - Special Presentation
