Leila, by Dariush Mehrjuei (DVD)

One Of The Best Movies from Iran.

One of the most celebrated Iranian films in years!

Reza and Leila, an attractive and affluent young couple deeply in love and recently married, discover that Leila is unable to conceive. Invoking tradition, Reza's mother convinces her daughter-in-law that Reza must, out of necessity, take a second wife to produce an heir. This provocative and eloquent story, from "Iran's longest running cinematic master" (Village Voice), is a stunning portrayal of the clash between tradition and modern marriage; between manipulation and the power of love.

Other films by Mehrjui: Tenants , Pari, Cow, Music Man, Hamoon, Haloo,
