Poster for I Changed My Mind

2021 · ★ 8.0 (2)

The collected novels of the almanac reflect the picture of the world as it is seen by modern people — as a systematic and no longer surprising chaos, through which you need to wade, preferably with your head held high. In such a world, women's variability and the ability to instantly change their decision to the exact opposite is no longer a disadvantage, but an advantage. According to the authors of the almanac, it is the ability to change your mind that makes a woman a heroine of today. Because in a world that has gone completely mad, there is no place for final decisions.

Poster for The Sealed Soil

1977 · ★ 4.5 (8)

A young woman in pre-revolution Iran is caught between the traditional values of her small village and her own yearnings for independence and individuality. Her persistent refusal of marriage proposals coupled with her unseemly removal of her hood causes her family to seek the help of an exorcist, convinced she must be possessed by evil spirits. Made surreptitiously in 1977 just as the Ayatollah Khomeini regime was coming to power, a rough cut of ‘The Sealed Soil” was smuggled out of Iran by the director in a false-bottomed suitcase, and taken to the U.S., where she completed her final cut. The film has never been seen in Iran.
