The Seed of the Sacred Fig

This Iranian film packs a punch as both a political thriller and a family drama. During political tension in Tehran, an investigating judge’s gun goes missing – his wife and daughters fall under suspicion. It took home five awards from the 2024 Cannes Film Festival.
The story around the film has also attracted attention. Embattled writer/director Mohammad Rasoulof shot this film in secret and, later, made a 28-day escape from Iran.
“It plays out like that rare piece of art capable of capturing the individual agency inherent in both resistance and compliance.” – Noel Ransome, Globe and Mail
