A Man of Integrity

Mohammad Rasoulof / IR, 2017 / 117 min.

An intense drama that brings home how difficult it is to hold on to personal integrity in the face of injustice and corruption. Director Mohammad Rasoulof shot his clandestine film in northern Iran and smuggled it out of the country on a memory stick and straight to the Festival of Cannes, where it won the top prize in the Un Certain Regard section.
