Impasse

Synopsis

Rahmaneh, now 37, stands at the forefront of Iran's protest movement. She spent her first two decades fully veiled, following the traditions of her deeply religious family. Her mother, Elahe, shared this experience, but Rahmaneh's views clash with those of her father. As political tensions rise, the film captures her struggle to maintain family bonds across three generations. The personal and political pressures threaten to fracture their relationships in a changing society.
