Dandelion Season

Defiant young director Hanna seems to be forced into an arranged marriage in America. Arranging anything for this talented, head-strong woman was their first mistake.

Directed by Maryam Pirband, Dandelion Season leans on a strong ensemble — Hannaneh Shahshahani, Gohar Kheyrandish, Rudy Youngblood — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 0.
