Circumstance

A wealthy Iranian family struggles to contain a teenager's growing sexual rebellion and her brother’s dangerous obsession.

Two teenage girls navigate the wild Iranian underground scene as they grapple with their attraction for one another against the backdrop of an impossibly homophobic society.

Maryam Keshavarz’s terrific lesbian drama has been getting rave reviews everywhere since its Sundance premiere. A truly must-see movie.
