A married couple are faced with a difficult decision - to improve the life of their child by moving to another country or to stay in Iran and look after a deteriorating parent who has Alzheimer's disease.
The stand out film of the 2011 Berlin Film Festival and winner of the Golden Bear, A SEPARATION is a suspenseful and intelligent drama detailing the fractures and tensions at the heart of Iranian society.
