The Circle

Nargess (Nargess Mamizadeh) is one of several women in contemporary Iran, each trying to get through a day in a society that restricts what a woman may do alone. Jafar Panahi passes from one to the next, so that a woman glimpsed in the background of one scene becomes the center of the following one. The film ends on a closed door and the women who are still waiting outside it.
