Maryam is an involuntary immigrant in the US, who after forty years has not forgotten her escape from Iran’s border wrapped in a sheep’s skin. Maryam is always worried about her elderly parents and in constant visual connection with the home in Iran from thousands of kilometers through surveillance cameras. These cameras take her to the days of the 1979 revolution. Today, Iran is again experiencing turbulent days and now Maryam encounters her revolutionary past and revolutionary girls who are challenging the present system.

我出生在一个世俗主义和宗教观念分庭抗礼的伊朗家庭，父亲思想开放，母亲则是一名虔诚的伊斯兰教徒。他们的爱情见证了末代王朝的覆灭、伊斯兰革命的胜利，也经历了两伊战争的艰难岁月，一直持续至今。而这一切，都发生在我们位于德黑兰的家中。童年时期，我经常被迫在他们二者之间做出选择，每一天都要忍受来自一方的强迫和另一方的接纳。
