My Uncle Filmi

Nazgol Kashani & Maryam Katan/ Short film

In the aftermath of the 1980 Islamic revolution, a once-successful uncle turns to illegal video rentals as the regime cracks down on cinemas. The story unfolds during a chaotic raid on the family's home, led by Revolutionary Guards, resulting in the uncle's arrest and imprisonment. The film paints a vivid picture of the family's concern for the uncle's safety and the oppressive atmosphere of the period.
