Farah, a filmmaker born in Iran in 1979, after the Islamic revolution, tells her documentary story in diary form. In a collection of 8mm films, she compiles moments of joy and resistance and shows the contrast between inner freedom and outer oppression. The barren garden of Farah's family, a centre of family life, is also a place of coming home for her. By establishing contact with Leila, her university professor who left Iran during the revolution, a second voice is given a name and a story within the film. When Farah's mother falls ill with Alzheimer's, Farah motivates her to fight against forgetting. Then, in autumn, the Jin Jiyan Azadî movement (Woman Life Freedom Movement) begins and marks a turning point in Farah's life, as it does for many other Iranians. Moments of Peace, in the midst of turmoil and resistance, reveals the complex connection between personal and political life in Iran. Told with care and entirely from the perspective of women.
