Directed by Bahram Tavakoli
Bahram Tavakoli deftly adapts Tennessee Williams’ The Glass Menagerie to a contemporary Iranian context. Fatemeh Motemed-Aria stars as a matriarch determined to marry off her handicapped and alienated daughter, seeing a last hope in the son of a work colleague. Abounding with contemporary detail, the film represents an effective transposition of a classic tale to a new social context.
