A Week with Azar
A Week with Azar is a short experimental documentary film, based on the true story of Azar, an Iranian computer engineer living in the United States, who in the winter of 2017 failed to see her ill sister in Isfahan (Iran) for the last time because of the Executive Order 13769, commonly known as the travel ban. According to this ban, the nationals of seven countries, including Iran, could not enter the USA. The film's fragmented narrative structure and aesthetic (juxtaposing 16mm film, digital video and still photo frames) is a reflection of the fragmented life of an immigrant.
