Iranian film-makers, more than anyone else it seems, have mastered the art of whole-of-society stories. This racy, funny, thought-provoking film, made in 2017, is one example.

This is an animated film made for adults, which perfectly captures dilemmas and character decisions without the need to become graphic (unless when really needed).

The ace in the film's style pack is the animation. Without it, we might feel we're watching just another docudrama about life and death in fanatical Islam.

The film get its transgressive thrill from the collision of ancient theocratic authoritarianism and 21st-century licentiousness.
