International Perspective
"After I was born, we moved from Switzerland back to Tehran. Shortly after, the revolution happened and changed everything upside down. My mother found a new identity, an important space for herself: She became a religious activist, school principal and did military training. My father sat quietly in his favorite chair at home and listened to Bach. My mother’s prayer mat, and my prayer mat, were placed next to each other in the living room, by the window. Photographs of women without hijab were ripped apart. My mother censored the past —while my father dreamt of a different future". Through photographs, archive footage, letters and voices, the documentary told a love story, two different beliefs, a family in the turmoil of Iran’s modern history.
Winner of the awards of best feature-length documentary and the best creative use of archive at IDFA. The film was also presented at IndieLisboa.
