You can watch The Stoning of Soraya M. (2009) for free on Hoopla.

In 1986 Iran, Sahebjam, whose car breaks down in a remote village, enters into a conversation with Zahra, who relays to him the story about her niece, Soraya, whose arranged marriage to an abusive tyrant ended in tragedy.

A heavy, suffocating sense of injustice permeates every frame of this harrowing portrait of rural repression. One woman's desperate struggle against a cruel local decree transforms a chance encounter into a searing indictment of systemic tyranny.
