Tuesday, June 16, 2026, 7 p.m. / Warehouse Osnabrück
Film screening of "My Stolen Planet" (2024) by Farahnaz Sharifi (director, writer)
in cooperation with the European Media Art Festival
"My Stolen Planet" tells the story, in diary form, of Farah, a filmmaker born in Iran in 1979, after the Islamic Revolution. Through a collection of 8mm films she acquired from various people, she assembles moments of joy and resistance, revealing the contrast between inner freedom and external oppression. By contacting Leila, a university professor who left Iran during the revolution, a face in Farah's archive is given a name and a story. Farah's mother, who suffers from Alzheimer's disease, also motivates her to fight against oblivion. Then, in the autumn, the Jin Jiyan Azadi movement begins, marking a turning point in Farah's life, as it did for many other Iranians. The film shows moments of peace amidst the turmoil and reveals the complex connection between personal and political life in Iran.
