1960s Iran: a housewife struggles to find fullfilment within her family's expectations. Seemingly content with the domestic trifles of her middle-class family, Clarisse's world is turned upside
down by the arrival of a mysterious family across the street. Suddenly passions, politics, and a plague of locusts whip up emotions she never knew she had. A humorous yet poignant insight into
the hopes and aspirations of Iranians leading up to the Islamist Revolution. Original.
