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

This special screening 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.

“Mesmerisingly gripping... electrically tense" - The Telegraph

“The world needs more films like this” - Vanity Fair

“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. 

As Australia’s first impact entertainment discovery platform, we’re proud to partner with Sharmill Films to bring The Seed of the Sacred Fig's message to Australian cinema audiences. We're also excited to be working with our impact partners at AUSIRAN to ensure this film's message makes an impact!
