Between Revolutions plot

In the 1970s, Iranian Zahra studies medicine in Bucharest. Soon she becomes good friends with a fellow student, the Romanian Maria. When the Iranian Revolution breaks out in 1979, Zahra returns to Iran, hoping to contribute to political and social change. A lot is indeed changing, although things are not getting any better, especially for women. Zahra will never return to Romania. But the friendship is not over; in the decades that followed, they wrote to each other a lot, letters about the unrest in their countries and the position of women, but also about the feelings of deep affection they have for each other.

The Romanian Maria and the Iranian Zahra met in the 1970s while studying medicine. In 1978, Zahra returned to her country to play an active role in the Islamic Revolution. Maria and Zahra kept in touch by letter, and Zahra's experience in Iran served as a guiding light for Maria when Romania rose up against Nicolae Ceaușescu's reign of terror in 1989. Using archive images, Petri shows how important the role of women was in the Iranian Revolution, but also how life changed for them after Ayatollah Khomeini took power. A fascinating eye-opener about an extremely relevant chapter in 20th-century world history.
