Azar Nafisi, a former professor at Tehran University, secretly gathers her most dedicated female students to read forbidden Western classics. As fundamentalists seize control, the women remove their veils and speak openly about their hopes, loves, femininity, and their search for a place in an oppressive society. By reading Lolita in Tehran, they celebrate the liberating power of literature in revolutionary Iran.
