In Jamiat Ghabele Control (این جمعیت قابل کنترل) is a 2025 Iranian social drama marking the feature debut of director Mohammad-Matin Owjani. At its heart is Khānjūn, an 80-year-old grandmother living in a large, bustling family in south Tehran, whose lifelong dream is to perform the Hajj pilgrimage. When her younger son finally arranges a Hajj package, the family rallies around her wish — but medical realities, old wounds, and emotional distance threaten to unravel everything.
The film is a tender, unflinching portrait of aging, memory loss, and the invisible labor of caregiving. It examines how modern life quietly erodes family bonds while exploring generational conflict and the burden of shared responsibility. Praised for its sensitive humanity, the film has earned recognition at international festivals including in Bangladesh and Bulgaria.
