My Order

My name is Diba. I’m 24, and, for as long as I can remember, I’ve always been a loner. Yet, I can no longer bear this solitude. I need to go far away to a place where the sky is eternally azure, like the blueness of the sea. 

Diba wants to be free of her nightmares, but within the fine line between reality and the imagined, only the truth will reveal whether to be or not to be. 

Director Vahid Parshad has said that he tries to portray the suffering and solitude of an angry society in a world moving ever further from simplicity. “I wish to reach the light at the heart of the darkness that leads to a safer, kinder world. I will therefore capture images that faithfully reflect reality.”
