READING LOLITA IN TEHRAN DVD In 1979, having studied abroad in Europe and America, Tehran-born Azar Nafisi (Golshifteh Farhani) returned home after the Shah's overthrow to teach English literature in college. The repression she encountered over the next 18 years under the post-revolutionary regime-as she ultimately sought to privately join with her best students for a book club-is tellingly chronicled in this take on Nafisi's 2003 memoir. RUNTIME: 107 minutes. In English and Farsi with English subtitles.
