Cafe Setareh
Cafe Setareh
CAFÉ SETAREH is about the challenges faced by three women in an old district of Tehran. Fariba supports herself and family by managing a small cafe in the district with no support from her jobless, debauched husband. Young and beautiful Saloomeh dreams of marrying Ebi. She wants for more comfortable life, but Ebi, a mechanic, cannot even pay for a wedding or apartment. Moluk, a middle-aged woman, has fallen for a younger man, but it’s an unrequited love.
"The rare film equally influenced by Quentin Tarantino, Jean Renoir and William Saroyan, this time-winding triptych has a deep humanist sense and a feel for working-class folk whiling away the hours." (Robert Koehler, Variety)
