    so relevant with current situation in my country.

    This animated movie depicts the consequences of prostitution, drugs, physical contact prior to marriage, equality of genders, religion, and the importance of virginity. The colors used in the movie are not bright and colorful and from watching the movie one can understand why. A woman needing her husband's written consent and for him to deliver it in person to get a job or to enroll a child in school in unreal.

    a manifesto

    ...one of the most powerful and provocative and useful. Its subject - the freedom. Not only in Iran but as escape from hypocrisy, fear, pressures and fear. Lives . And decisions controlling aspects defining them. Great animation, solid stories, special manner to explore the near reality. And tools for defining it. At first sigh, a film against oppression of religion. In essence, a pledge for accept the rights of the other. Well crafted, it remains a time in memory for the atmosphere. And for the clear, honest message.

    A requiem for the dying Iran

    A great movie showing the problems of Iranians in these days. It's so sad that these are really happening. An interesting choice was Zahra Amir Ebrahimi who was the victim of this Iranian morality that forced her to leave Iran. She was a victim of the same thing in the movie, too.

    An explanation for many of the world's problems?

    A powerful film that leaves the viewer completely appalled at the end. Rotoscoping is ideally suited to this film by allowing the viewer to focus on the action and dialogues without being distracted by the details of untransformed images. This lets the viewer realize how religions, especially that which prevails in Iran and elsewhere, have been invented to control people, especially women. In Tehran Taboo, religion is clearly exposed as a catalyst used by criminally insane authorities to facilitate their crimes. Made me glad to be an atheist.

    The most realistic narrated movie about Iran!

    It's the most realistic narrated movie about Iran and our crap regime...

    Of course its visual and some things about it can be more realistic and much more beautiful but there are lots of things in it that history must to know about!

    By the way it's an adult oriented movie and not a family movie, be careful there are lots of inappropriate stuff in it for children like sex, abortion, porn, drugs, adultery, suicide, prostitution, strong language... I'm saying that because it's an animation and can 'cos misunderstanding sometimes.

    It's a really suffocating experience to live in Iran. it's good to know that people from other countries know about it and care about it, they can see it in these kinda movies and try to avoid it in their countries, I mean don't let Islam or any other religion ruin your country like ours...!
