SHAYDA

An Iranian mother living in Australia, Shayda, finds refuge in a women’s shelter with her frightened 6-year-old daughter, Mona. Having fled her husband, Hossein, and filed for divorce, Shayda struggles to maintain normalcy for Mona.

Buoyed by the approach of Nowruz (Persian New Year), she tries to forge a fresh start with new and unfettering freedoms. But when a judge grants Hossein visitation rights, he re-enters their lives, stoking Shayda’s fear that he’ll attempt to take Mona back to Iran.
