The Glass House

Hamid Rahmanian's film is a unique insight into Iran through the prism of a day centre for troubled women run by Marjaneh Halatin, a psychologist now based in London.

Among those featured are Nazila, trying to find an escape through rap music (which is illegal for women in the country), and Sussan, who has fled her abusive drug-addicted brother.

Most affecting is Samira, aged 14, who became a drug addict after being force-fed heroin by her equally addicted mother.

As Rahmanian follows their stories, their shared spirit and mutual support shine through in this surprising and illuminating documentary.
