(and for the OP: have you seen any of Abbas Kiarostami's films? They're terrific explorations of contemporary Iranian society. I especially recommend Crimson Gold (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0371280/), which is brilliant, and also quite short, so you could probably show it to your class for an alternative perspective. Even if you don't, I feel the need to plug it for its own sake. It's a truly excellent film.)
