Wings of Glass
2000 · Movie · 105 min. · Sweden
A young woman is torn between her father's culture and her desire to make her own life in this drama. Nazil (Sara Sommerfeld) and Mahin (Aminah Al-Fakin) are two teenage girls growing up in Sweden under the watchful eye of their Iranian-born father, Abbas (Said Oveissi). Abbas is proud of his Iranian heritage and tries to instill in his daughters a respect for their history, but Nazil and Mahin feel more comfortable with Sweden's relatively relaxed cultural mores. Abbas thinks it's time his daughters begin thinking about marriage, and with this in mind he introduces them to a pair of Iranian men.
