The Football Aficionado
19 November / 18:00
‘The Football Aficionado’ tells the story of Zahra, a 27-year-old Iranian woman living in Tehran who is a passionate fan of Persepolis, one of the largest football teams in the capital. She has always dreamed of watching her favourite team as well as the Iranian national team play in the stadium. However, due to an unwritten law, women are prohibited from attending matches in stadiums. In response, Zahra decides to disguise herself as a man to gain entry, not realising that her actions will go viral on social media and be covered by the press, leading to a new chapter in her life.
