Molières 2024
This is the distance travelled by Mina and Fereydoun, who came from Iran to seek refuge in France after a revolution that was stolen from them. Yalda, their daughter born in Paris, tells us about their life in exile, their fight for freedom, their love for a country and their hope of returning home. She takes us on a journey between her two worlds: her family, uprooted people who never complain, and French society, in which she desperately seeks her place.
It is the story of a heritage that we love and hate, the story of men and women seeking to forge a new path for themselves.
