On Dec 29th - we’ll be at @roxycinemanyc for our last screening of the year, proudly presenting the earliest surviving Iranian film directed by a woman. SEALED SOIL is Marva Nabili's unseen masterpiece. A sophisticated portrayal of a woman's resistance against institutionalized misogyny in pre-revolutionary Iran, this will be the first and only screening of this film in New York City’s cinemas. Tickets are limited and will sell out quickly—get yours now and share with friends.
