A War on Women tells fifty years of female resistance through private footage, testimonies, and clandestinely filmed images in Iran.

Four generations of women have challenged the regime of the Ayatollahs and the control imposed over their bodies and lives, transforming oppression into a movement capable of enduring revolution, repression, and exile.

Activists, mothers, actresses, prisoners, and exiles form an unbroken chain of resistance. An intimate and direct look at a country often misunderstood, placing at its center the voices of those who chose not to remain silent.
