Review of Leila

Leila (I) (1997)
10/10
Exceptionally well-done given censors' restrictions
7 June 2001
The director creates an amazing passion between the hapless lovers even though, under Iranian censorship rules, they cannot touch on screen, and the women must be totally covered (except for face and hands) at all times, even at home. A brilliant, well-told tale.
