In 2016, Sara began documenting her visits to her family’s garden outside of Tehran. Here, she spends her days with her father, Mahmoud Dowlatabadi, one of the most prolific contemporary Iranian novelists. A man who has lived through poverty, imprisonment, revolution, war, political repression, and censorship. Sara counters her parent’s version of events by narrating her own perspective as a child. Having been inspired throughout her life by Mahmoud, Sara incorporates her daughter’s imaginary adventures along with narration of passages of Mahmoud’s writings.
