A digital journey back to Iran

Shahab invites his uncle on a digital journey back to Iran – a place that has been unreachable for decades. By weaving together old family video tapes with modern VR images, the film depicts the timeline of an exile, from the escape to the present. A portrait of two generations' longing, where the virtual return offers a solace that is as sweet as it is bitter.
