Hamideh MOEINFAR 2012 Sweden Documentary color 14min English DigiBeta
The documentary combines with animation and real-shooting. Director Moeinfar talks about her haunting trauma from her
compulsory self-covering past in Iran. Even when she is in Sweden and has experienced life in the reveal, she can still find the painful feeling she used to have. Therefore, she decides to make the film to find out why. This documentary shows the opposite two viewpoints of "body-display" among muslin and westernized women. When facing
each other, an intense debate begins.
