Reza and LeiIa, an attractive and affIuent young couple deepIy in Iove and recentIy married, discover that Leila is unabIe to conceive. Invoking tradition, Reza's mother convinces her daughter-in-law that Reza must, out of necessity, take a second wife to produce an heir. The heartbreak that foIIows is "in a word, devastating" (The New York Times). CalIed "the most interesting and accompIished filmmaker the United States has never heard of" by Godfrey Cheshire in The New York Press, Mehrjui has become more familiar to audiences with the criticaI and box office success of Leila which topped the critics' lists for best fiIms of 1999. |
