Mrs. Iran's Husband
Sultan Mohammed is the ruler of the house in the heart of the mountains. The whole family must obey him. He does his best to be a powerful ruler for his wives.
Gender apartheid is front and centre in this pointed exploration of family and labour in Iran. Sultan Mohammad proposes taking a third wife as a way to maintain and expand his free labour force, to the consternation of his current wives.
