TEHRAN, Oct. 15 (MNA) – ‘Domino’, Iranian feature directed by Laleh Barzegar, will be taking part at the 53rd edition of Hof International Film Festival in Germany.

The film is about a young woman, Yalda, who despite many disagreements with her husband, she tries to maintain her marriage because of her worries about the future and fears of prejudice. But the differences are growing and there is no communication between the two. In the end, there is no other choice but divorce.

Yalda moves back to her family, but they want to hide the divorce, and so Yalda has to stay away from her relatives. These developments change Yalda into a completely different person.
