Hasti, a widowed nurse who has a daughter, marries a paranoid wealthy man.
Sinekatalog’s take
A widowed nurse marries a wealthy man whose paranoia slowly poisons the household. The Iranian psychological thriller builds dread from domestic detail. Tense, claustrophobic and unpleasantly plausible.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
