THE CROWD
2025, Iran
Sahand Kabiri
Raman is leaving Tehran to study abroad. A group of friends, led by his partner Hamed, decides to organise a spontaneous farewell party. Since the party will violate several laws and rules, the group must not only consider things like the venue, guest list and music, but also keep the plan strictly confidential. Director Sahand Kabiri uses this seemingly simple plot to portray representatives of a young, promising generation that refuses to accept the unfree, highly patriarchal social order in Iran.
