Sem produkt iranskega boja med sekularizmom in islamsko ideologijo. Ljubezenska zgodba mojih staršev nas popelje od obdobja Shaha do islamske revolucije in stisk med iransko-iraško vojno, vse do danes – v našem domu v Teheranu. V otroštvu sem bila nenehno prisiljena izbirati med starši; vsak dan sem prenašala vsiljevanje z ene strani in sprejemanje z druge.

SYNOPSYS:
I am the product of Iran’s struggle between secularism and the Islamic ideology. My parents’ love story takes us from the Shah era to the Islamic Revolution and the hardships during the Iran-Iraq War, up to the present day –all in our home in Tehran. In my childhood, I was constantly forced to choose between my parents; each day, I endured imposition from one side and acceptance from the other.
