Plot Summary:Three interwoven stories about life in modern day Iran that explore the redemptive qualities of human nature. A TV host tries to prevent his wife from telling authorities that he assaulted her, a clergyman tries to get legal documents back from the man who robbed him, and a thief suffers a crisis of conscience when an elderly couple force him to reconsider his values. Taking a voyeuristic look beneath the veneer of ordinary tragedy, Mohsen Abdolvahab's 'Please Don't Disturb' is a dramatic tour-de-force about our innate capacity for forgiveness.
In a three-tiered tale of modern Tehran, Mohsen Abdolvahab explores the social and familial patters of a city in flux over the course of one day through the eyes of a battered wife, a mullah, and a housebound elderly couple.
