Just watched this. If this is what Iran is like even slightly I am extremely glad I don't live there. Beautiful settings, but several things got to me - the beach where men were wandering into the sea in budgie smugglers and shorts while the women were not swimming and covered head to foot. Then there was the notion of a man saying something in public about controlling his wife without people looking at him as though he is a bit psycho. The morality police was a surprise, and the idea that women who drive can be pulled over by the police - I am not sure if it was the stereo was on or because they were women. I knew about the having to have a male relatives permission to travel.. It seems extremely repressive to me, but there are definitely lighter moments. I rather liked the idea of coats and veils hiding dance clothes, and the parents were lovely.
