Directed by Jafar Najafi, the documentary is about Mina, a makeup artist who is determined to realize her dreams.
She, not only refuses to succumb to her husband and mother-in-law’s fierce opposition, but also paves her own path and pushes forward along it.
Gradually, it looks as if the people and world around her are starting to change.
The doc has gone on screen at some global events, including the Yamagata International Documentary Film Festival in Japan, where it won an Award of Excellence, and the International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam in the Netherlands, where it received the FIPRESCI Award.
