"I'll be the manager and you'll be the dancer." This is the first sentence one hears in Circumstance, directed by Maryam Keshavarz. Those who've watched pre-revolutionary Iranian film-farsi* are familiar with the shabby plot: a brutal, sexist and corrupted cabaret manager exploits and abuses her female dancer, and the movie protagonist, an athletic man, usually from downtown Tehran, falls in love with the girl and fights with the manager to rescue her.
