- Synopsis
- Forough Farrokhzad, one of Iran’s greatest modern poets, provoked uproar by daring to write of female sensuality in the face of society’s traditional values. Her awakening found expression in poetry, theatre and cinema, enabling art, as she saw it, to be a ‘window through which we see ourselves sing, shout and cry’.
