Faramarz Beheshti, Director of "Salam Rugby" at the ECU European Independent Film Festival 2011 in partnership with G-Technology. Winner of Non-European Documentary.

In 2004, the first women rugby class was organized in Tehran. A few months later, Ahmadinejad was elected president of Iran. Over a 7000 Km journey, we meet some of the women who are trying to learn this new game, despite the Talibanization programs, introduced by the new president. Salam rugby, is not only about rugby.
