The Seed of the Sacred Fig

Tehran lawyer Iman (Missagh Zareh) didn't mind the perks that came with being named a judge of the Revolutionary Court. However, his duties-which included rubber-stamping death sentences-raised ideological walls with his wife (Soheila Golestani) and daughters (Mahsa Rostami, Setareh Maleki)-and after he found his government-issued gun missing, his mounting paranoia would spark tragedy, in Mohammad Rasoulof's charged, acclaimed opus. 168 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: Persian; Subtitles: English. In Persian with English subtitles.
