Sundance Festival winner “The Persian Version” plays Sunday at 1:30 and 4 p.m. in the Bengal Theater. Note, there will be no 7 p.m. show due to it being Super Bowl Sunday. In this comedy/drama, an Iranian American woman strives to find balance and embrace her opposing cultures and coming to terms with her family and finding her own purpose in life. “A funny, soulful journey across language and time that also offers an illuminating look at the complexities of motherhood and identity,” writes the Huffington Post, while the Chicago Reader calls it “a visually colorful and vibrant celebration of how immigrant families traverse two cultures only to find that the real divides are often within our own families.” Admission is $3 for the public, $2 for ISU staff and free for ISU students with Bengal ID.
