Ava

Bright, enthusiastic teenager Ava embraces all of the opportunities afforded to her in Tehran, prioritising academic success alongside her relationship with her best friend Melody. Ava's overprotective mother is deeply unhappy about her daughter's relationship with a male classmate and takes the drastic measure of forcing the teenager to visit a gynaecologist to prove her virginity. This public display of distrust ignites a fire of rebellion beneath Ava.
