CANÒDROM'S GRANDSTANDS | THE SEED OF THE SACRED FIG

The Seed of the Sacred Fig is an intense and moving drama set in contemporary Iran, where a family becomes trapped in the contradictions of a repressive regime. As the father, a judicial officer, imposes increasingly strict rules at home, the women begin to rebel through small everyday gestures that become powerful acts of disobedience.

With a slow but piercing narrative, Mohammad Rasoulof presents a brave portrayal of female resistance in the face of institutionalized oppression. A film about courage, internal conflict, and the struggle for freedom both inside and outside the home.
