Nadia is half-Slovenian, half-Iranian. For one year, she is going to Iran with her family. There she joins the first year students at the local Iranian school. This documentary portrait of the 7-year-old girl shows us that a Slovene can also be a foreigner in a foreign country and needs to accept another culture and the way of life: left-to-right writing, school uniforms, and headscarves. The short film brings the Iranian everyday-life closer.
