Director(s) : Niki KARIMI

Internationally celebrated actor, writer, and director Niki Karimi ("One Night", "Final Whistle") returns to a subject close to her heart: the relationship between men and women in her native Iran. In this tense family drama, we see a young wife and mother start to unravel when she interprets her husband’s strange behaviour as proof that he might be plotting against her. Traditional protocols fuelled by growing anxiety prevent her from broaching the subject with him directly, resulting in a slow drift through growing unease into abject paranoia. The beautifully observed plot gently twists and turns, remaining utterly gripping, right through to its final revelation.

After an accident, sunk in the everyday life, Nahid finds out that there are too many secrets in her husband’s life…
