Until Tomorrow
Ali Asgari / IR, FR, QA, 2022 / 86 min.
This compelling Iranian drama follows Fereshteh, whose parents don’t know she has just had an illegitimate child, as she is keeping this hidden from them. In a society where not everyone enjoys equal rights, she has to choose her allies very carefully.
Until Tomorrow follows a day in Fereshteh's life. A stressful day, as she gets a phone call from her parents saying they are going to come by. Her illegitimate child is not acknowledged by the state, and would not be accepted by her parents. Along with her persistent, humorous friend Atefeh, she goes in search of someone who is prepared to look after her baby for one night.
