Docunight Presents: Iranian Women's Stories
Four documentaries, now streaming on the Criterion Channel, embody the adopted slogan of the current protest movement: Woman, Life, Freedom
MAHOROBA
At the Hudsucker corporate headquarters, a salaryman (“Me”) is the constant target of his hulking, bald, perverted boss’ violent retribution. Bittersweet childhood memories of Me’s late grandmother keep him going, but his brutal work life pushes him to the breaking point. Me gets sweet revenge and hightails it out of Tokyo, only to have his airplane violently hijacked. He’s dumped into the Pacific Ocean and onto the shores of remote island Mahoroba (an ancient Japanese word describing a far-off utopia).
