Join us at the Union Cinema on Thursday, October 2nd at 7pm<\/strong>. This film is the earliest complete surviving feature film directed by an Iranian woman, Marva Nabili. The Sealed Soil<\/em> chronicles a young woman\u2019s resistance to her forced marriage, a rebellion quickly misinterpreted by her family as demonic possession. Breathtaking in its directorial sophistication and restraint, and unblinking in its critique of institutionalized misogyny, this is a too-long-underseen masterstroke of world cinema.<\/p>\n
