METEOR is a 10-minute animated experimental documentary detailing the filmmaker’s grief after losing her best friend Amin in the repressive Islamic Republic of Iran. Through a surrealist exploration, METEOR juxtaposes the international “women, life, freedom” protest movement with the challenges faced by the LGBTQ community in Iran, making for a poignant and emotional ode to friendship and a tribute to those who continue to suffer in Iran.
