to these places in europe smashing the wrinkled step into a bold adventure. the treasure map for modern flow. describe it as some of us wriggled, begging sites on you to look for the coach. it's so stuffy. it's hard to breeze. i'm not well. is it daytime night time? time stands still. you've done everything possible to break me to crush my will my fine to silence. you would succeed,

the my name is and i guess mohammed i'm writing from a v prison entailed on the feel sorry, a terry and religious government has relentlessly suppressed the women life freedom movement. but even if people are no longer protesting in the streets, the spirit of the movement live. so this is the last footage of her as

a free woman. after many years in prison. ronnie and human rights activist nor guess mohammed the was released on bail in october 2020. immediately she risk being jailed again, meeting with former inmates and making a film about the around in regimes crimes the small pieces. and i thought as the group of $23.00 activists who have experienced solid tree confinement so it is a time to reach out to them together. we're going to the judiciary offices to file a complaint on keeping that solitary confinement to violate the lo about it is only 20 years from, you know, this is a historic moment. talk to this complaint means the most, the tortured i'm, the perpetrators are registered with deal. so rich, who used to can do get on that, even though it's costly to, to definitely supervisor you must have, this is an important step. you know, the fight for justice. several faith due to how much title young the does for years . not been fixed. as you bet about the camera down when any that

machine of them can otherwise, they'll take it from you, the, the machine to them to be given us as to time moment. know what to you to the no matter what you film in iran, you always need permission from the regime forces for the service, the machine. the vision that's included from one is that at some point, and even if you have permission to assume you're strictly monitor all the ones you need been to the you're not allowed to phone your current buildings. and the way of doing your feedback that you wish of us something that's why we had to film in secret and imagine plenty in your spence. imagine that together was still makers by hades out as id and gaylor a cook of und nuggets. mohammed de begin interviewing regime opponents for documentary white torture. the name describes and especially brutal form of torture,

experienced by her interview subjects and by mohammed to herself. it was a dangerous undertaking. almost simultaneously, authorities rated the homes of the entire team into iran, a 10 years old, and they broke down my apartment door lock that had the effect of seen by the me chatting much each time we found we had to copy the footage onto a separate hard drive, so i've been and send them to different places on how to otherwise they would have confiscated the material when they searched our homes. you know, i'm amazed at that. how much is a totally fine not unless somebody, the financial model is that you, they didn't find anything because on the day they arrested and our guest, we'd hidden all the film footage or show the feed home road pain on tracking you. i was wondering, i guess i was was, i guess when the regime force has broke into our house is how much wonderful and i guess you all can get us started because i witnessed her bravery that day. i

followed her example when they came to my place a few days later, back to him on that when a man, when they told me to put on a headscarf, i said, you've come into my house. thank you. but you don't have to wear headscarf here. and so little money. when am i make the rush here shot into stock when i'm to, to have one in the name of the other. 2 filmmakers managed to get the highly sensitive footage out of the country. they now live in exile in germany, but not as mohammed, he was sent back to prison a few months later. she's still there today. i gave up everything as a women, a mother, and a human being to fight for freedom, equality and democracy. i don't regret that, but that doesn't apply to my children, ali and kiana. i regret the tie comp be with them the

years ago. now kids mohammed these children left for parents to join their father in exile, twins, ali and kiana. haven't seen their mother since then. the running machine for bits any contact their last phone call was a year to the sales department. i don't hold much hope of seeing her again. but even if i don't, i will always be proud of her. just to come into the bank, the quantity of us, if you know we grew up like this, with this fight against the government, because no matter where we are, even if we were on mars, one will always be concerned. what's happening in there on to been in our country the growing up in iran, their mother. now guys,

mohammed de was already campaigning for women's rights. their father, tyree ross money, also thought for human rights. the, the children have many fond memories of their extended family. but they also remember one or the other parents often being in prison and redeem forces storming their home. there's use reducing even the men breaking down to the food. my father was fighting when they came in, even though i was so little, i still shut the thinking about it. and so i remember the terrible feeling of seeing my father being taken away or fox. this is what i thought, you know, let go of dad. he doesn't want to go no, but i should stop by his refunded. i mean tardies of money was imprisoned dinner. ron, for 14 years. in 1988,

when i told the for many had thousands of political prisoners executed. he survived . when he faced imprisonment again, he fled to paris. he hasn't seen his wife for 11 years and hasn't been able to visit his homeland but the party seemed to be named my apologies and powers of my soul is into rhonda tad on. sometimes when i'm on the streets of congress on right, i imagine that a great deal of the stuff to ron's and traveling. so the revolution, streets, and writ, lublix, trains, and jones, if you don't want to, i told them to move, you know, kids mohammed did not follow him into exile despite the fact that iranian authorities would have been more than happy to let her leave from abroad. her voice would have been less powerful to push them on. yeah, i wanted us to go to get a clear on this to the when i went to abroad. i realized that i wanted to go back

to living abroad is like living in an aquarium. you're not in a place where you'll need to move. everything is happening in around the world in this fight. it's important to have principal this morning to as the way i know now . guess she wouldn't leave that wrong because she wouldn't leave. we have to organize our alliance accordingly. like i was in the military. the regime wants me to disappear, but i wouldn't be defeated by this long separation. even if at times i'm overcome by an overwhelming sadness that makes me think i went to vice even after her public accusations against the government interviews, exposing the regimes, crimes and continual present sentences. now guess mohammed de has kept working,

including by filming her documentary white torture in it. she describes her own experiences and solitary confinement alone in a cell for weeks and months at a time or one. yes, the next you have to in the i meant to your hot stops, you actually have to order been to us when the door was slammed shut. should that be a terrified to meet or mutare the 4 times and so the treat myself just 3 paces wide to official lines 24 hours a day. no books, nothing. the, the spreading science was like an endless screen power lising my brain cells.

so the stripped of all your senses and sold the tourism, your sense of smell is gone and done. that's the only sense that might work. a bit is hearing from you soon. i of the size that they take away your sense of the shape. you lose your ability to perceive things. you're in a void. your organs are working to rely even an endless grieve. but you're not dead . you're still there. right and nothing this is really like experiencing that. bad journalist, son of right,

has served numerous prison sentences in iran, including a total of $288.00 days in solitary confinement. in 2009, as iranians protested against the official results of the presidential election. he was one of the journalists, making sure the news reached the wider world trying to do that, you begin to focus kind of ridiculous when i say that their crime was journalism. while the nature of journalism is usually significantly by many iranian journalists have been in prison in t as in the to, it depends on the length of the detention he goes. after a few days, it's your township political prisoners, especially subjected to that treatment. they put pressure on them by keeping them in solitary for a few months instead of getting so very often the government of these nomic republican and similar all sorts having made james claim that political prisoners

of foreign spies and things like that. so if you go you ready to the race, she makes up a story along those lines or don't choose this book, people who will play a long hope. people are often arrested without being told the charges they'll face, or how long they'll be detained. are then come degrading interrogations, which also fall under the term white torture included. and i enjoyed a year and a half in solitary once the 6 months then full months, 3 months and 6 weeks. how did you start? you got imagine how, how did is i see when you go into the sound, you feel like the walls are closing in on you and your heart is constricted as long as your heart is being ripped down cause that's what want to watch. it feels like and try to prevent

these frontiers, you can use it. feet, we use the term white georgia time because it leaves no visible blooms on the body is all head on nissan. ca, logical ones, with the roof and model of the british. iranian student phone che 5 on me was imprisoned in 2014 her offense. she had trying to attend a mens volleyball game and to iran, something band for iranian women. that so you back she staff theater. she has one of their strategies has to humiliate you know, hon. you're not even allowed to use the toilet when you want to. like she had talked to, does she sat on the end? an important part of this humiliation is that they open and close the door whenever they put on messiah choosing those ended any credit. because on how do you have no privacy at all? and that way you keep task the guy can come to

humiliation of a patriarchal society who are you anyway? i got another pass and you're a woman here on the corner to the exact friendship by telling women that they are inferior. you said to absorb as one weapon, if white torture in prisons is to force women to make sexual confessions, many women have told now guess i've experienced this. it systematic? well, the interrogator is doing it for his own sexual gratification until it's part of the procedure in a male interrogated, will say to a female prisoner describe your sexual relationship with that my little, my body. mental now goes mohammed. the used to a brief time out of prison, to document the stories. and later in prison, she took the risk of continuing this work. during the woman life freedom protests, she succeeded in publicizing accounts of sexual violence, against prisoners,

to long separation from family, and children is also used as a method of torture. not guess mohammed de is haunted by a dream she had in her cell of her young daughter the well, i'm not for you. 200 we need for them is i actually felt can is initially so my g o b, you not personnel, your lips killed. i'm not here on a case to me. i'm on you that i wanted to hook up to when i suddenly realized i'm in a cell drawer esna solution could choose from. i didn't want to open my eyes to be sure to do that in moments like that was simply human beings. i have one more that means many years have passed since then. kiana is now 17. she thinks about the milestones, big and small, that she hasn't been able to share with her mother. may i pray calls the old.

i started to miss my mom more and more. i was a bit fed up with her not being with us. here is 45, if i wanted my mother's actor, the seller man, i wish he had told me how to put on makeup house a dress. she's a woman, we have the same body here and she could teach me so much about myself in call. but i have to figure it out to him on my own. it says i wish my mom had been that's helped me. of course i missed her, but there are people who are worse off than me. i consider myself lucky. there's that my mom is still alive, kind of the fill up with this phone equity. i do sports on the side just to keep going. feel free to take my mind off of things so that life can go on. and if it takes an

attempt to escape the situation, even if at the end of the day it doesn't work. i'm on you little bit. my mom and dad are my role models feel? i've seen it 1st thing. they sacrifice the whole part of the delta thing of the people that they sacrifice sleep at important moments of, of got home. i me, i remember mom coming into prison, very ill people. that was hard for me. but it was also an explanation of the climax and my mom is a fighter and i'm really proud or so i wish that one day sheets next to me and i could throw ha, that would be so cool to go for it was. this is just a person i so looking by, but i wanted to draw her. she was incredibly pleased and free at the same time.

you're close vision for this young woman is popular, saw spirit, an investor, and i think freedom has something to do with it. it's on an envelope financing because it's wonderful to feel freeze reserve cluster, calling the listing freedom is every single or close to that. an investor for a pool is the young women in the wrong could be as free as she is. there's that would be great. we're at or send me about 10 or 12 cuz those from, you know, kids mohammed d was able to smuggle a letter to us out of prison through secret channels. she wrote about what moved her most during the interview she conducted with inmates who had been tortured. what shocked me was how severe the consequences of solitary confinement, aw, even decades like to it has huge effects on the so the mind and even the body.

you should be to see that one of the worst things was that they could open the door whenever they wanted. honey on that report. that after i was free, i always locked the door of my room that you holding before i didn't mind someone coming into my room, donald was incorrect, but afterwards i suddenly being shown, whenever i sense to move, make sure that a that was on that i was on edge that someone could come in and i would have no control over as the actual yet to instead of the, instead of the, you know, and the solitary. so they told me, we'll go out and come back with your family. enjoy to when i got into the interrogation room, i heard voices of a woman and a child. i don't know why don't ask you to so i felt the burning pain a whole nother. my heart had stopped beating by the chest. the chap on billy turned out that i'd had a stroke, sawgrass me to them. i can hardly see now ask them to chat and see if i can only

read with my right eye. i get your estimate. i can't drive for right now, don't i'm to give you to them before now. now, so once you've been inside, can't even see my food properly. as all, newton i'm that was the baby and i'm calling in son will be teaching a human being and put them in a meat grinder. what comes i will still have some human material yet, but these 5 the to call you as well. so, but, so what's the confinement info at the time when you come out, there's nothing left of you. i'm in the room to even if you have the energy to defend yourself with it. and you know at that, um, which i probably get more of a month for me. so let's re consignment is really an attempt to destroy a person. i'm time most of the the, the child then then gave you, do the torture is a method that eventually breaks its victims the regime,

coerce is false confessions in order to publicly present detainees as guilty activists up to a lot more many has experienced how that works. first hand based on the cost of the engine tank meant was throwing up on the basis of solid evidence as well as clear and unequivocal confessions. find the defendant in the next 10 minutes. it's enough for us so that when i read the confession big, i felt immense hatred for myself. well, i asked myself how i could be so weak websites, them to imagine that both. and i wondered how i could make up for us if we cheated . bunch feel like the fall list person in the world has any control not to drive

you to suicide. they saw us. how much is the she wouldn't take pictures from it. today, i'm thinking about those who made forced confessions and summit, she confinement, and were executed. the stories a buried wisdom in december 2023 now gives mohammed d is not in solitary confinement. she's in a vain prison in the women's wing for long term political prisoners. taking photos is 4 bits. these are images from a hacked surveillance camera in another wing back home show the pictures are a lot like how it is that's against the wall bunk beds. it has those who's been inside say that it's very similar to what it looks like. and the woman's when dim companies on phone act, allstate, now them come out and has been

a political activist since her mother, the german eroni, enough hate hobby, was jailed in around 3 years ago to hobby to campaign for women's rights and was sentenced to 10 years in prison magazine, my name was ha, now guys and my mom have the same room, and their beds are right beside each other that now i know i'm that, or some detainees are permitted occasional phone calls. now guess mohammed has been able to smuggle out statements critical of the regime. that's kind of an invisible side. that's kind of doom during one visit or spread over several phone calls divine and under. they can be via another prisoner who answers questions bernardez . if you're not, i guess, but it's really not easy. it's and it's very dangerous on which is why not every prisoner does it. the thing must assault me. she'd have to find a knock. as mohammed is severely ill with a heart condition, she's now dependent on medical care. in november 2023,

when the prison administration tried to force her to wear a head scarf for her journey to the hospital, she went on a hungry strength. no food, no medication for life was in danger. days later, not guessed mohammed d was allowed to go to the hospital without a head scarf. and her friends created this photo montage. a small victory against the machine. i mean much out of here besides our not care advantage 1st using to wear headscarf to go to the hospital, might seem trivial to many people there bullshit body margie measures womic republican envelops us like the shell of a big guy calls my multiple sword and it tells me your haven was or use your motor . your people are knocking against the shell from the inside, hoping that cracks will appear in one day that i will bring the job. i'm going i'm the district has position. not kids mohammed the is 51 years old.

she spent a total of almost 9 years in prison and still has 8 more to go. despite this, her will to fight has become even stronger miniature, but she's decided to fight against the use of solitary confinement. no, not today, no gas is much braver, more determined, and once she does the default to hodge most of the video or the encryption so that what impresses me most is search humanity with it. that she puts others before herself. the a teacher, she something and then sometimes that's not good thing, but in situations like these, it's a strength because she never gives up. victory is not easy. so it won't come today

or tomorrow, but she is. that's what she said. and that's what i believe was unbreakable against a powerful regime that suppresses its opponents and has silenced so many but even if major protests have stopped, many continue to resist by challenging the rules of the islamic republic. the men freaked them for them to to you don't it, it is you, i don't think there won't be any more protests any ron that might have had in my religious family. my sister responded to what happened to by taking off her head scarf. joe said his name is that the movement is like embers among the ashes. i last the fire can reignite at any time. who am i sure, nevada? sure. not. guess mohammed d was awarded the 2023 nobel peace prize. it's both an honor and an inspiration for

all those who have taken to the streets and risk their lives under the banner of tion shawn. as id, woman, life, freedom. this is not. guess mohammed's message from the prison. i called on own of you to help free people from all sort terry and systems, especially religious and miss such an estate, ones the stand up for peace, the the a pulse,

the beginning of a story that takes us along for the ride. it's about the perspectives culture information. this is the, the news w mines is the forest with a terrible past. it was a nice new page. was us troops advanced in germany to bring in more to in europe. so why does this work for us? was a miracle, sir, i was witness accounts of the battle of route and forest in 75 minutes on d w. we

say they're about never giving up every weekend on d w. the, this is data be news and these are our top stories. is really authorities say the carrier will shalom crossing will open on tuesday for 8 inspections. they say it will enable more humanitarian aid tends, regardless of why of the roof. a crossing agency said the humanitarian situation for civilians in gaza is apocalyptic as israel fights and must militants in the territory. poland parliament has elected center. as donald, just as prime minister, you will lead a co.
