Special Preview Screening - The Seed of the Sacred Fig - Sydney

See this Oscar nominee before its official cinema release at this exclusive preview screening.

This special one-off event is brought to you in a partnership between Sharmill Films, good.film and AUSIRAN. It includes a special introduction from director Mohammad Rasoulof, as well as the opportunity to hear from local Iranian Australian leaders about the Woman, Life, Freedom movement in Australia.

The Seed of the Sacred Fig is an extraordinary film that was shot entirely in secret in Tehran, before the director and key cast were forced to flee under threat of arrest by authorities. Since then, this dramatic thriller has been nominated for over 80 international film awards including the Academy Award for Best International Feature, a Golden Globe and the Palme D'Or.

“You'll be unable to look away for even a second” - Collider

The Seed of the Sacred Fig is an urgent female empowerment story, ripped from real-life headlines of the Woman, Life, Freedom uprising in Iran. It includes real-life protest footage, and focuses on the women of one family as they boldly challenge their father and husband, and their own cultural norms.
