Editorial Reviews

Product Description

On the heels of the recent controversial elections in Iran comes this documentary from Rakshan Bani-Etemad (The May Lady), the most outspoken and respected female director working in Iran today. This fascinating documentary focuses on the Iranian elections of 2002 and the role of women in Iranian society as Bani-Etemad follows a group of women who run for office and gradually narrows her view to the plight of one woman who attempts an heroic but unsuccessful run for the presidency.

3.0 out of 5 stars A study of the condition of urban women in Iran, January 9, 2007
By Stanislas Lefort (Switzerland) - See all my reviews
Neither quite a documentary, nor a fiction, as very often with the iranian cinema, "Our Times" depicts the presidential elections in 2002 and focuses on one woman candidate. Why she wanted to be a candidate and what happened. It would be a terrible spoiler to tell more... :-)

An interesting story but lacking in strength.
