Set in rural Iran, Cutting Through Rocks follows the first woman elected to a local village council as she navigates patriarchal power structures, resistance, and the everyday courage required to push for change. This film is a powerful meditation on gender, governance, and persistence, offering insight into how feminist struggle takes shape across borders and political realities.
