Ventnor Film Society Screening - Holy Spider
–
5 December, 2023
In this suspenseful crime thriller, a courageous female journalist investigates family man Saeed as he embarks on a religious quest - to 'cleanse' the holy Iranian city of Mashad of immoral and corrupt street prostitutes. After brutally murdering several women, he grows ever more desperate about the lack of public interest in his divine mission. This is a graphic and unsettling account of a true crime in a deeply misogynistic society.
