Handsome movie superstar Kourosh seemingly has it made. He's making a movie and is besieged by womenÑhis voicemail plays a chorus of pleading, threatening and cooing female voices. But despite all their love, his fame and wealth have made him a narcissistic egomaniac with numerous addictions. One day a fresh-faced girl with a camera distracts him on the set. He pursues her first in the routine way, then his fascination deepens as her motives become more mysterious. Iranian director Tahmineh Milani's films have always focused on the lives and mores of contemporary women, but here she tackles the timeless theme of the truly good life through the cell phone calls, posh condos and restless SUVs of fast-lane Tehran. Superstar is a free rendering of Hermann Hesse's fairy tale "Augustus," in which a mother gets one wish for her infant son that will seal his peace of mind in a crazy world of image-making and excess. —Frako Loden
