Salam Rugby plot

Iran's women's rugby team was founded in 2004. Not long after, Ahmadinejad was elected president. He immediately did everything possible to thwart women's love for this sport. Yet more than 1000 Iranian women still play rugby. Out of passion, but also because it is a way for them to taste some freedom in a country where the law still states that a woman is worth half as much as a man.
