FREE ON CINEGEEK.DE jafar Panahi - Offside (engl. subt.) 

A short introduction for a better understanding, because in Iran the mullahs have banned women from entering the football stadium. Jafar Panahi, counter-revolutionary, draws the material for his comedy from it. The top league in Iran is called Qods, which means "liberated Jerusalem". After all, football is politics! A quarter of a century after Chomeini's revolution in 1979, it became a sport for women to circumvent the ban on football. Camouflaged with baseball caps and wrapped in oversized flags, they are let in: As men. Offside seems like an illegal documentary, we are in the midst of the raging crowd, the hand camera wobbles and tries to capture the action. Behind it hides a cleverly composed feature film with amateur actors and a showdown! The women in the film are shrewd, the men are dolts from the country. With a light hand the Mullah regime is exposed as a farce and an old man in the fan bus finally explains the magic of the arena: You can scream, sing and say whatever you want. However, Panahi's film was not allowed to be shown.
