Philadelphia Jewish Film Festival: Love Iranian-American Style March 25, 2007

Sexual purity, money and a mother's worries come together in this humorous guided tour of America's status-obsessed Iranian Jewish community. The film follows Tanaz, the narrator, a hip New Yorker whose Iranian family attempts to marry her off now that she's reached the ancient age of 25. Tanaz vacillates between soppy American ideas of romance and a more business-like Iranian approach and in the end may be unable to execute either.
