Mini-Documentary Series Title: Woman Life Freedom
EPISODE 1
Logline:
An Iranian woman endures war and abuse, finding strength in her daughter and protests to break free from a lifetime of silence
Synopsis:
Aseman’s life mirrors Iran’s struggles: war scars, religious control, and a legal system that silences women. After decades of abuse from her husband and a strict mother, she channels her pain into protecting her daughter. Through Iran’s protests, she redefines courage, showing how personal survival fuels collective resistance against oppression.
Director’s Statement:
This film uncovers the hidden battles of Iranian women through Aseman’s eyes—a survivor of war, abuse, and societal neglect. I aim to spotlight how trauma cycles through generations and how quiet resilience becomes rebellion. By blending personal pain with Iran’s “Woman, Life, Freedom” movement, I want to honor women rewriting their stories in a system built to erase them.
EPISODE 2
Logline:
A woman in Iran fights abuse at home and work, inspiring others to demand respect and freedom.
Synopsis Version:
Darya grows up with a strict father and faces harassment from powerful men. When her husband dies, she struggles to survive but finds strength by teaming up with other women. Together, they speak out against abuse and inspire change, even turning her father into a supporter. The story highlights hope and courage during Iran’s “Woman, Life, Freedom” protests.
Director’s Statement:
This film shares the real-life struggles of Iranian women fighting for fairness in a society that silences them. Through Darya’s journey, I want to show how one person’s bravery can inspire others. It’s about everyday women standing up to unfairness, proving that small acts of courage can spark big changes.
EPISODE 3
Synopsis Version :
Sahar, an Iranian actress, fights to perform Chekhov’s The Seagull despite censorship and threats. Drawing parallels between her role as Nina and her own life, she battles a regime that silences women. Through protests and art, Sahar and her theater group defy bans on female performers, sparking hope in Iran’s “Woman, Life, Freedom” movement.
Director’s Statement:
This film celebrates art as resistance. Through Sahar’s journey, I explore how women in Iran use creativity to break chains. Blending Chekhov’s timeless themes with real-life protests, I want to show how courage onstage fuels courage in life—and how silenced voices roar back.
