Let's watch "Reading Lolita in Tehran" at Filmfest DC

I read the book (by Azar Nafisi who was at one time a professor in Iran} when it was first published and loved it, so am eager to see the film. It is Nafisi's memoir as well as an account of a book discussion group she led. The members of the group were thoughtful young Iranian women, and their interpretations and stories are interspersed. The setting is post revolutionary Iran, with Iranian actors.

Tickets for the first showing are sold out, but there were still tickets for this one. To find the schedule for Filmfest and to purchase tickets go to Filmfest DC 2025.
