Mohammad Rasoulof's drama follows a pregnant lawyer barred from practising, trying to leave Iran as her husband is away. Leyla Zareh is superb in a tense, grey-toned film about surveillance, sacrifice and the cost of staying or leaving.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
