This powerful Iranian drama exposes the conflicts that plague the strictly regulated Islamic nation. Rigid and stiff, Iranian law forbids teenagers to interact in public. When Tadaie (Pegah Ahangarani) and Aideen (Majid Hajizadeh) are picked up after merely walking down the street together, their families lay down the law and order them to stay away from each other. Unable to accept this oppression, Tadaie flees her home and turns to the streets for survival. THE GIRL IN THE SNEAKERS is an unflinchingly personal film.

Romeo and Juliet meets Vagabond in this gentle satire on the mores of modern Iran and pubescent arrogance directed by Rassul Sadr Ameli. The film opens with teenaged couple Aideen (Majid Hajizadeh) and Tadai (Pegah Ahangarani) strolling through a park in Tehran. They proclaim their love for each other and dream wistfully of a future together until a police officer suddenly arrests Aideen under suspicion of deflowering the young maiden. Though he is soon released, Tadai's family is outraged that she would be seen with him ? an unrelated young man about the same age ? and demands that she never see her dearly beloved again. Believing that she simply cannot live without him, she runs away from home and sets out on a 24-hour odyssey through the underbelly of Tehran looking to reunite with Aideen. Along the way, she encounters a startling array of sleazy merchants, gypsies, and homeless people.
