The director, Reza Bird (this film features his own personal story),
is an Iranian filmmaker who has been forced into exile due to his
political and social activism. As a result, he has a deep
understanding of the issues and concerns of those involved in the
revolution and has a personal connection to the subject matter.
After Reza's videos supporting the revolution went viral, a
community of protesters and activists both inside and outside of
Iran formed around his social media accounts. This resulted in an
influx of first-hand stories and materials being sent to him. Now, he
has a strong community of protesters and activists around his social
media. Reza previously has worked with networks such as Arte,
BBC, and VOA and also notable brands such as Twitch, Apple, and
Gravity Sketch.
