seperation movie trailer

At the beginning of the film, Nader (Peyman Moadi) and Simin (Leila Hatami) stare directly into the camera, which is a surrogate for an unseen divorce-court judge. Simin is explaining that she wants to leave Iran so their 11-year-old daughter, Termeh (Sarina Farhadi, the director's daughter) will have more opportunities for a better life. Just what does that mean? the judge asks; Simin doesn't answer, looking away, but it is not hard to deduce what she means: She wants her daughter raised in a more open society, where women are treated more equally.
