In a depressed industrial town in Iran, drug dealers, pimps, and other ne’er-do-wells come out at night and ruin lives. A skateboarding vampire in a chador provides vengeance. And, then she meets a boy… This is a moody, atmospheric film reminiscent of early Jim Jarmusch films.
Box Office Bottom Line: I liked it – a nice twist on the “helpless muslim girl” trope. It is a little slow-paced, but intriguing enough to keep one’s attention.
fun movie!
another good non-hollywood film!
