Starless Dreams (2016)
A film by Mehrdad Oskouei. A Cinema Guild Release.

The internationally-acclaimed documentary STARLESS DREAMS plunges us into the lives of young teenage girls sharing temporary quarters at a juvenile detention center on the outskirts of Tehran. Oskouei, one of the most prominent Iranian filmmakers, spent seven years securing access to this all-female facility. As the New Year approaches, the girls bond and reveal with disarming and often playful honesty the circumstances and acts that resulted in their incarceration. They have killed their father, robbed a bank, or were arrested for carrying 651 grams of cocaine. Outside the prison walls, danger is everywhere, even within their own families.
