The Circle background

The Circle

In a contemporary Iranian setting, a group of women boldly challenge the norms of their society, fighting to assert their independence and autonomy in the face of centuries-old patriarchal dominance.

Two women, Arezou and Nargess, are released from prison and flee to Nargess' hometown, but face challenges including lack of identification and police searches. Meanwhile, Pari escapes to have an abortion, but is unable to get help from her friend Elham, a hospital worker, and is eventually taken into custody after trying to stop a woman from abandoning her daughter. The stories of these women, and others, come together to form a powerful narrative of shared despair and hope.
