Iran's first-ever Oscar submission to be directed by a woman, Breath is set during the tumultuous time in the late 1970s and early 1980s spanning the Iranian Revolution and the Iran-Iraq War. The film follows Bahar (Sareh Nour Mousavi, in a riveting performance), a young girl who retreats into imagination, fantasy, and folklore in the face of the conflict around her. Using short animated sequences and intimate voice-overs, this visually impressive film beautifully evokes a child's perception of the world. (112 mins., DCP) In Persian with English subtitles. Recommended for ages 10 and up.
This film may not be suitable for children under 10. The film features a child dealing with the effects of poverty, war, illness, and a loving grandmother who nonetheless beats and curses at her grandchildren. Please call Director of Education Shelly Casto at (614) 688-3986 with questions.
