Filming in her apartment turns the life of Mahboube, who lives in seclusion, completely upside down: for a week, she is confronted with people in her courtyard, her kitchen and her bedroom – with the crew using her personal belongings for the shoot without being asked. At the same time, the subject of the film, a break-up, brings back long-suppressed memories. Hashemi’s directorial debut, made during the “Woman, Life, Freedom” movement, shows how emotional healing is possible in the midst of difficult circumstances.

In the presence of the director and leading actress!
