The UICA Movie Theater shows independent, international, and documentary movies in downtown Grand Rapids Tuesday through Sunday year round.

Opening this weekend: The gorgeously animated drama, Tehran Taboo. The lives of several strong-willed women and a young musician intersect. Their stories reveal the hypocrisies of modern Iranian society, where sex, drugs, and corruption coexist with strict religious law. The film offers a unique portrait of contemporary Tehran.
