"The Circle"
- a great film in a good cause -
Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (SA)
in conjunction with
Amnesty International Australia Women's Group
present
a film evening fundraiser
This powerful film, which has been banned by Iranian authorities,
follows the lives of four women in an oppressive society where men
hold all the cards, yet where even to allude to this fact is seen as
a dissentient act. Their world is one of constant surveillance,
bureaucracy and age-old inequalities, but this stifling world cannot
extinguish the strength and courage of the "Circle" of women.
"The Circle" caused a sensation when it was awarded Best Film, The
Fipresci (Critics) award and the UNICEF award at the Venice Film
festival. It was very highly rated by film critics, Margaret
Pomerantz and David Stratton (SBS's "Movie Show").
