Set in a Kurdish village close to the border that separates Iran from Iraq, Jamil Rostami's Requiem of Snow stars Shadi Veryani as Rojan, a teenager madly in love with her fiancé Jian (Masoud Yousefi. Jian is away for an extended period, during which Rojan's father arranges for her to marry a wealthy older man.

However, Saeed's reasons for suggesting the trip turn out to be far from selfless. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi
