Summary:
It is almost shocking to think of Iranian teenagers as preoccupied by sex, parties and social status. Why haven't we seen these images before? This is because Iranian media, which is controlled by a religious fundamentalist government, only allows images of a nation of pious believers. The Western media, which is pre-occupied with the threat that Iran poses for the West, compounds this by never showing what lies beneath the veil. Dog sweat is a film that shows Iran the way it truly is. The film centers on the lives of six young Iranians as they struggle to satisfy their private desires in the face of conservative Islamic society.
