One More Day

Director Babak Payami's first feature makes an effective commentary on the segregation of the sexes in an emotionally besieged society.

"On the threshold of the new millennium, man is still struggling, as hard as ever, to free himself from the bonds of loneliness and isolation."--Babak Payami

Set against the bustle of Tehran, Payami's film is a sensitively told tale of a man and a woman who develop an undeclared relationship after seeing each other every morning at a bus stop. The director attempts to show that it is possible for us to emerge from our personal worlds, one day at a time.
