me. i'm hot. it's so stuffy. it's hard to breeze. i'm not well, is it day time night time? time stands still. you've done everything possible to break me to crush my well, my fine to silence. you would succeed the

my name is not guess mohammed. i'm writing from avi in prison entailed on the deal. so 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 kids mohammed the was released on failed in october 2020. immediately she risk being jailed again, meeting with former inmates and making a film about the iranian regimes. crimes, the small pieces of sin, i thought as the group of 23 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 below about it is only 20 years later. this is a historic moment. talk to this complaint means to those the tortured i'm, the perpetrators are registered with deal. so it seems to can you get on that even though it's costly to, to definitely supervisor you must have, this is an important step, you know, fight for justice several faith to the how much title young the does for he is not as you said 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 good enough to come moment know what to you to the no matter what you film and iran, you always need permission from the regime forces or the police or there's no motion. the

vision that's included from one is that at some point, even if you have permission to assume you're strictly monitor all dotted what, what do you need been that you're not allowed to phone your court buildings and the way of doing give feedback the show of this month and that's why we had to film in secret and imagine plenty in the sense, imagine that together was still makers fact hades out as id and gaylor a cook of on. now guess mohammed the 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. and then when they broke down my apartment door lock that had the 50 feet by the me try to match 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 a who now i'm amazed at that, how much is a totally fine not to my son pay the financial model. it was because they didn't find anything because on the day they arrested in our guest, we'd hidden all the film footage or show the freedom home road pin on padding. a loser kim? i was wondering, i guess i was was, i guess from the regime forces broke into her 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 in the bathroom on the 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 low monday when am i make the rush here shot into soccer. and i'm just those have already know the name of the other 2 filmmakers managed to get the highly sensitive footage out of the country. they now live in x island, 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 here to say what was it,

but 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 in to, to sort of in the when i go on the website, 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 the wrong vendor 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 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 in the middle, breaking down the d. c. my father was finding 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 here is what i thought, you know, let go of dad. he doesn't want to go. no, but i should stop by his refunded on this toddy. money was imprisoned dinner. ron, for 14 years, in 1988, when i told of how 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 parties and to be named my apologies and powers of my soul is into wrong tad on sometimes when i'm on the streets of paris on right,

i imagine that a great deal of value. so to ron's travelling, so in revolution, street and republic, strange germans, if you don't want to, i told them to move you now guys, 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 nutrition. yeah, i wanted us to go together 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 know, it's in a place where you'll need to move. everything is happening in around the world and it's fine. it's important to have principals who, to as the way i know now, guess she won't leave that rom, which will be because she won't leave. we have to organize our alliance accordingly, like i was in the mood area.

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 suffice. 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 well, yes. and actually you have to in that i meant to your hot stops, glasby have to order been to yes. when the doors slammed shut, would that be a terrified david meetings didn't pardon me?

4 times and sold a treat myself just 3 paces wide. oh, it's official lines 24 hours a day. no books, nothing. the the spreading silence was like an endless scream. power lising my brain cells. so a saw speaking to her, stripped of all your senses and solitary, your sense of smell is gone and done. that's the only sense that might work a bit is hearing me soon. i the

best of 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 search 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 teenager 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 has. 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, the spies and things like that. so if you go, are you ready to the race? she makes up a story along those lines, or that one chooses the people who will play a long hope. the people are often arrested without being told the charges they'll face or how long they'll be detained. then come degrading interrogations, which also fall under the term white torture. for them i enjoyed a year and

a half in solitary once the 6 months then full months, 3 months and 6 weeks. how do you suggest that you cannot imagine how hard it is? i see, but 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. so that's what, why don't you feels like and try to prevent these letters. you can use a feat, we use the term white georgia try because it leaves no visible boons on the body. go ahead, i'm only psychological ones. 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 forever on in women back. so you back she, she feels she has one of those strategies as to humiliate you on you're not even allowed to use the toilet when you want to. she had to have that as she sat on the end, an important part of this humiliation is that they open and close the door whenever they turn messiah choosing those. and at any credit, because on how do you have no privacy at all? and that is that you get to be, i can come to humiliations of a patriarchal society who are you anyway? i'm going to pass and you're a woman here. i'm connect to the exact pressure by telling women that they are inferior to you said to absorb as one weapon of white torture in prisons is to force women to make sexual confessions. many women have told now, guess i've experienced this before. it's systematic. well,

the interrogate is doing it for his own sexual gratification until its parts of the procedure in a male interrogator 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 the prisoners, to long separation from family and children is also used as a method of torture. the non case mohammed de is haunted by a dream she had in herself of her young daughter the well, i'm not for you 200 we need what i'm says i actually felt can, isn't it? you sound like she will be, you know, personal, your lips to and i'm not here on

a case to me. i'm on you're going, 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 live in moments like that and we simply human beings. i had one of them 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 play causing the ones that signed good old? i started to miss my mom more and more. i was a bit fed up with her not being with us. there's 45, if i wanted my mother's actor a man, i wish he had told me how to put on makeup how to dress. she's the 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 less of than me. i consider myself lucky. there's that my mom is still the lines of the film for this fall equity. i do sports on the site just to keep going. feel free to take my mind off 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 like sacrifice oklahoma or the dealt with thing else. they want people, they sacrifice sleep. important moments, some of them. i mean, i remember mom coming into prison, very ill with all that was hard for me,

but it was also an inspirational coffee of us. the climax and my mom is a fighter and i'm really proud of her this. i wish that one day she'd sit next to me and i could throw. huh. that would be so cool to go for it was sooner. this is just a person i so routine by. but i wanted to draw her. she was incredibly pleased and free at the same time. you're close fidget. this young woman is fabulous law school and investigate and i think freedom has something to do with it. it's on an envelope and i've seen because it's wonderful to feel re reserved cluster calling the we think freedom is every single or close to that. an investor for a pool is the young women in iran could be as free as she is. there's that would be

great. we're at or send, they've changed focuses from now kids mohammed de 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 with the torture workshop to me was how severe the consequences of so that she can find mental even decades like to it has huge effects on the so the mind and even the body you should be to see the doctor. one of the worst things was that they could open the door whenever they wanted. hang on that report and that after i was 3, i always locked the door of my room that you holding before i didn't mind someone coming into my room, donald was okay, but afterwards i suddenly being shown, whenever i sense to move, minutes or then. and i don't tell them 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 phone with terry. so they told me we'll go out and come back with your family, welcome on it and joy, you too. when i got into the interrogation room, i heard voices of a woman and a child. i don't know, i know it has to be there. so i felt the burning pain a whole nother my heart had stopped beating by the chasing the chap. i'm been turned out that i'd had a stroke contracts me to now. i can hardly see now ask one to chat and see if i can only read with my right eye. i get yes, but i can't drive for right now. don't on the give you turn on before? no. not. so once you've been inside, can't even see my food properly. as all, newton, i'm the new hosting baby. yeah. and about that going in sun will be to take a human being and put them in a meat grinder. what comes i will still have some human material and yet, but these 5 the to call you as well. so. so what sri 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 for that. 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 the engaging do them. 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 husband's indictment was throwing up on the basis of solid

evidence, as well as clear and unequivocal confessions, find the defendants in the, in the next, the governments, it's enough for us so that when i read the confession big, i felt immense hatred for myself. well, and i asked myself how i could be so weak websites, them too many doubles. and i wondered how i could make up for it if we cheated, but bunch feel like the file list person in the world has any control. not to drive you to suicide, they saw us how much she would take pictures for this. today i'm thinking about those who made forced confessions and some that she confinement and what executed the stories a buried wisdom, the in december

2023. now gizmo hummadi is not in solitary confinement. she's in a vain prison in the women's wing for long term political prisoners taking photos as for bitten these are images from a hacked surveillance camera in another wing back home. sure, the pictures are a lot like how it is that's against the walls, bunk beds. it has those who have been inside say that it's very similar to what it looks like in the womans when they become visa on file. and i thought was bit mt. m cloud and has been a political activist since her mother, the german, around the enough hate a hobby, was jailed in around 3 years ago to hobby to campaign for women's rights and was sentenced to 10 years in prison. that is, my name was hot and now guys and my mom have the same room and their beds are right beside each other than 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, as often as you'd have to find a knock is 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 headscarf for her journey to the hospital, she went on a hunger strike. no food, no medication for life was in danger. days later, not guessed mohammed d was allowed to go to the hospital without a headscarf. and her friends created this photo montage. a small victory against

the machine. how mean much out in precise are not care done is 1st using to wear headscarf to go to the hospital. might seem trivial to many people their bullshit body. margie mccormick, republicans and develops us like the shell of a big guy kaufman motor boat. and it tells me you have an invoice or use your motor . you people are knocking against a shell from the inside, hoping that cracks will appear in place. and one day that i will bring the job, i'm going, i'm going to, how does she cast that is 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 and more determined and walk. she dogs the default to or more

they give you all the encryption. so that what impresses me most insurance humanity with it that she puts others before herself. the a teacher, she some of them 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 is 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.

maverick, them for them to to you don't it to those 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 surely viable should 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 gin. john as id, woman, life, freedom. this is not guess mohammed's message from the bean prison. i quote on own if 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 monumental structures of the stone age, a milestones in the history of mankind. some of its greatest meetings are monumental stone arrangements that people are arrested long before the pyramid technical and logistical feat that simple as the impossible agent in bodies . yet the stones tell the story of the power for revolution.

what exactly happened as a 10000 years ago is sign in life. somebody in the months left by hour and the secrets of the stone age. december 22nd on the w and the it almost 40 years ago this factory whole body and even the i had a leak that release done so poisonous gas, you'll get it. yeah. for those who fell, never got up on it and everyone was just asking for one thing. god give us death or i'll give us death. that is, that it's led to us apply of toxic water, which is still affecting no clothes, kind of run it in a bit, or it tastes weird.
