Septembers of Shiraz is one of those dramas where everyone walks about pondering about the whys and wherefores of life, such is the lack of interest about anything going on here.
Prior to the Iranian revolution it was a place where people of all religions were allowed to flourish, this is the story of a prosperous Jewish family who abandon everything before they are consumed by the passions of revolutionaries.
Directed by Wayne Blair (The Sapphires), with a script by Hanna Weg, based on the novel by Dalia Sofer, the film stars Salma Hayek, Adrien Brody, Gabriella Wright, Shohreh Aghdashloo, Alon Aboutboul and Anthony Azizi.
Septembers of Shiraz is released in the US on September 15th, but as of yet, there’s no UK date. Please don’t hurry.
