Goodbye
With her husband in exile because of his fiercely critical writings as a journalist, a pregnant and disbarred human rights lawyer faces every possible opposition and threat to her personal and professional life from the Iranian authorities.
When all her attempts to make sense of her life in the country fail completely, she makes the hard decision to leave her country and tries every conceivable way to acquire a visa. It is only when her personal isolation and desperation reach unbearable heights that she is forced to make the most difficult decision regarding her pregnancy as part of a complex scheme to leave the country.
Set in Tehran, Goodbye is a frightening portrait of a society that is being crushed by the continual control and threats of its religious regime. Shot in secret, this is a gripping and disquieting masterpiece by one of the most acclaimed auteurs of Iranian cinema that captures the climate of fear and suspicion while at the same time creating a deeply compassionate portrait of a woman in crisis.
