| SYNOPSIS: Contrary
to the post-revolution status of women in Iran, a surprisingly
large number of
female filmmakers are producing exceptional works. The most established
Iranian female directors and actors speak out about their
incentives and
motives for making their films. Interviews include women directors such
as Rakhshan Bani Etemad, Tahmineh Milani, Shirin Neshat,
and heralded newcomers
such as Fatemeh Motamed Aria and Niki Karimi. Interspersed are behind the
scenes clips from the set and reactions to Tahmineh Milani's
controversial
film "The Hidden Half." |
