"Mother married a photo of Father," says director Firouzeh Khosrovani in the opening of this deeply personal documentary. She's not speaking metaphorically though. Her mother Tayi literally married a portrait of Hossein in Teheran -he was in Switzerland studying radiology and was unable to travel back to his homeland for the wedding. The event illustrates the abyss that still exists in their marriage: Hossein is a secular progressive and Tayi a devout, traditional Muslim.

[IDFA] A family story and an ideological rupture of the director's father and mother establish a general reflection of the 1979 Iranian Revolution. Radicalization causes emotional division. These scars are cleverly showed, but the film uses two false elements that harm it. The current sound of footage and an artificial dialogue between actors. The second part, without these elements, is more forceful, more moving.
