Summary:
Shirin Neshat's Women Without Men is an adaptation of Shahrnush Parsipur's magic realist novel of the same name. Nominated for Golden Lion Award, it chronicles the intertwining lives of 4 Iranian women during the summer of the 1953 coup d état, a cataclysmic moment in history when an American led, British backed mission led to the over throw of Prime Minister and reinstalled the Shah to power.
