Synopsis

‘Countdown’ comments on the huge success that Iranian women are having in academia. Underlining the importance that the younger generation places in education, the film focuses on Tehrani teenager Parisa a few weeks before she takes her university entry exams. Providing intimate access to her life, and the life of her family, the film captures a sense of the exceptionally hard work Parisa throws into her studies. While providing broader social observations, this film is also a fascinating insight into the changing roles and broader opportunities of women in modern Iran.
