“Impasse” depicts 52 days of Rahmaneh’s life in the beginning days of the Woman Life Freedom movement after Mahsa Jina Amini’s death. Rahmaneh spent her first two decades fully veiled, like her mother Elaheh, as part of a deeply religious family. Now 37, she is at the forefront of Iran’s protest movement and at odds with her father and the culture he created. This film shows her struggle to maintain the family bond across three generations, as it cracks under the pressure of politics.
