Documentary: Radiographs of a Family
02
Firouzeh Khosrovani tells the story of Iran, the 1979 revolution, and how it divided a society—and families—through the story of her own family. Rather than talking about abstract concepts, she shows us real moments and evidence from her family's life at different stages. It is a very accessible film for non-Iranian audiences, offering a glimpse into the dynamics of an Iranian family during a time of immense upheaval.
