I saw the film for the first time last year together with my friends at my home in Iran. We all liked the film. It shows the way of life of people in Afghanistan, but most of all it highlights the situation of Afghan women and their rights. The film is by an Iranian director, but it was filmed and produced in Afghanistan. I can strongly relate to the content of the film because I have experienced many of the scenes and situations myself. They have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. It is important to me to present a film that puts women and their rights at the center. People around the world should know that people from Afghanistan also value women's rights.
The film tells a very poetic story about a girl in shattered Afghanistan who must navigate new freedoms and old restrictions after the Taliban regime.
