Exiled from Iran after her film on the 2009 Green Movement was banned, a filmmaker breaks her family’s silence about a cousin executed in the 1988 prison purges. Through abandoned homes, surviving objects, personal archives, and years of diaristic filming, she explores loss, memory, and the silenced trauma that still shapes Iranian society amid a growing wave of resistance.
Directors' Biography
Iranian filmmaker and visual artist Bani Khoshnoudi creates documentaries, fiction films, and visual works exploring modernity, exile, and migration. Her 2009 essay film *The Silent Majority Speaks*, banned in Iran and Lebanon, reflects 100 years of political revolt in Iran.
