Ballad of a White Cow
Mina's life is turned upside down when she learns that her husband was innocent of the crime for which he was executed, so she starts a silent battle against a cynical system for her own and her daughter's sake.

To be honest, my patience for witnessing the inhumanity of fascists, whether in the news or in the movies or in the Bible/Quran/whatever, is wearing thinner daily. When you realize that once upon a time, Iran was not only secular in its governing, but also a beacon of knowledge, science, and art, it just makes this film even more heartbreaking. The saving grace for me was an excellent story, directing and acting.
