  1. Circumstance (2011)

    Teenagers Atafeh, and her best friend, Shireen, are experimenting with their burgeoning sexuality amidst the subculture of Tehran's underground art scene when Atafeh's brother, Mehran, returns home from drug rehab as the prodigal son. Battling his demons, Mehran vehemently renounces his former life as a classical musician and joins the morality police. He disapproves of his sister's developing intimate relationship with Shireen and becomes obsessed with saving Shireen from Atafeh's influence. Suddenly, the two siblings, who were close confidants, are entangled in a triangle of suspense, surveillance, and betrayal as the once-liberal haven of the family home becomes a place of danger for the beautiful Atafeh.

    Mini Biography

    Trivia

    Personal Quotes

    [on the 'Arab Spring" movement] What you see in ['Circumstance'] is the calm before the storm. You see the kind of feelings that were swirling around and how tired people were. What you don't realize is that 75 per cent or Iran's population is under the age of 35. Many feel they have no future. It's like a ticking time bomb.

    I think 'Circumstance' isn't so much a lesbian story so much as it's a story of two people trying to be who they are. It's about self-expression, whatever that may be.

    I guess I was a bit of a rebellious teen. I wasn't the happiest kid and I got into a lot of trouble. But that changed when I got involved in drama. It gave me a reason to get my life together. I felt like I really wanted to get involved, and I did.

  4. Not a fan of her music, too slow for me, but that is just my personal taste. She does have a great voice though and is definitely a very good singer.

    But it's always nice to see a talented Persian artist break through (:

    Thanks for all the vids, Xerxes :D
