The Day I Became a Woman
(2000)|
In her directorial debut, filmmaker Marzieh Meshkini offers an unsettling vision of what it means to be female in her native Iran. Tracing the stories of three characters -- a 9-year-old girl on the brink of maturity; a young wife who defies her husband; and an elderly woman seeking material comfort -- this tightly crafted, award-winning film is a powerful, poetic exploration of the struggle to maintain dignity in the face of second-class status.
