Facing Mirrors
Directed by Negar Azarbayjani
An intimate character study of two marginalized individuals finding unexpected connection and mutual understanding while navigating personal crises in a restrictive social context.
Rana has chosen a path in order to support her family, while Adineh (Eddie) has fled his home and city to escape his complicated situation as a transsexual man prevented from living as his true self by his family. They find themselves on the same journey and caused to know each other in a better way.
