"The Circle" - a great film in a good cause - Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (SA) in conjunction with Amnesty International Australia Women's Group present a film evening fundraiser This powerful film, which has been banned by Iranian authorities, follows the lives of four women in an oppressive society where men hold all the cards, yet where even to allude to this fact is seen as a dissentient act. Their world is one of constant surveillance, bureaucracy and age-old inequalities, but this stifling world cannot extinguish the strength and courage of the "Circle" of women. "The Circle" caused a sensation when it was awarded Best Film, The Fipresci (Critics) award and the UNICEF award at the Venice Film festival. It was very highly rated by film critics, Margaret Pomerantz and David Stratton (SBS's "Movie Show").
