Tale

Investigating judge Iman struggles with paranoia amid political unrest in Tehran

When his gun goes missing, he suspects his wife and daughters, imposing draconian measures that strain family ties as social norms crumble. Director Mohammad Rasoulof was originally scheduled to attend the 2023 Cannes Film Festival as a jury member in the Un Certain Regard section. However, he was arrested in July 2022 after criticizing the government's crackdown on protesters in the southwestern Iranian city of Abadan following the deadly building collapse.

On May 12, 2024, Rasouloff announced that he had managed to flee Iran and was staying in an undisclosed location in Europe

On May 8, 2024, Rasouloff's lawyer announced that he had been sentenced to eight years in prison, as well as flogging, a fine, and confiscation of his property. On May 24, 2024, Rasouloff attended the film's premiere in Cannes, and on the red carpet he showed off photos of two of the film's actors, Soheila Golestani and Missagh Zareh. To better understand the concept behind the film, it might help to learn where the film's name comes from: There are plants known as "strangler figs" that exhibit strange behavior.

The seeds germinate and send out roots that eventually reach the soil

Strangler figs (genus *Ficus*) begin their life as seeds deposited on the branches of a host tree, usually by birds or other animals. As the roots grow and thicken, they encircle the host tree, creating a lattice-like structure. Over time, the roots and branches of the strangler fig grow larger and more robust, competing with the host tree for sunlight and nutrients.

This fascinating but destructive relationship highlights a unique strategy in the plant kingdom for survival and growth

Eventually, the fig’s growth can become so extensive that it compresses the host tree’s trunk, restricting its ability to transport water and nutrients. This process can lead to the death of the host tree, effectively allowing the strangler fig to take over the space and resources previously used by the host. The strangler fig does not kill the host tree outright, but slowly outcompetes it through a combination of physical encapsulation and competition for resources.
