MRS Saïdi
Bijan Anquetil and Paul Costes / 59 min / 2016
“Madame Saïdi” is the portrait of an Iranian actress like no other. The mother of a 70-year-old martyr, a figure from Ali Abad, her working-class neighborhood in southern Tehran, she became a film star late in life, much to everyone's surprise.
