My Stolen Planet is a diary-style narrative by Farah, an Iranian filmmaker born during the 1979 Islamic Revolution. She captures moments of joy and defiance while navigating the contrast between domestic freedom and public oppression. Collecting anonymous 8mm archives, she gains perspective on memory and loss. A professor named Leyla helps her identify a face from the past, bridging personal and collective histories. Inspired by her motherÕs AlzheimerÕs, Farah fights against forgetting. The 2022 Women, Life, Freedom uprising became a turning point in her life and in IranÕs homemade history.
