Tatami
Zar Amir Ebrahimiová, Guy Nattiv / Georgia, USA 2023 / 103 min. / 15 years / DCP
Tatami is a unique film; the first ever to be jointly made by an Iranian female director and
an Israeli director. Together they tell the story of Leila, who is about to compete for the
title at the World Judo Championships. Her journey to the top is interrupted by an
Iranian government ultimatum: she must stage a defeat or she will be considered a traitor
to her country. Will Leila succumb to the oppression, or will she fight until the end to
gain her personal freedom?
