for now, when we say they're about never giving up every weekend on d w the, this is the 1st global feminist revolution. the barbarian christian telling me the woman that you are not allowed to show your head the this is about the life. the last sundays the

end of september 2020, to $1.00 of the largest protest movements. the country has ever seen began in the wrong tens of thousands of women and their support is took to the streets, demanding freedom, and the hosting of the regime. the state responded with bruce will by more than a year in the whole place at the women's revolution in iran has full analysis with the international spotlight. but the prisons remain full. unexcused. sions are still taking place. the struggle continues, especially for women. this is film festival in berlin. we met with courageous arabian, so make is what dedicating they work to the women of the. ready refill in spite 3 female directors about 3 different generations. each offering insights into the lives of women in iran today. ready ready ready a group of friends in tehran can find that the women talk openly about love and

loss about loneliness and getting older about how to find the right man, or just a man for starters. voice good, just straight to look for so much. is it the worst good news media around give to mississippi. you don't know fi, beautiful. it's an enrollment. good to go down. what does she really do? monday? she's telling the person you motivated you to pay the card chosen. don't know if it'd be the one to you or would you? the story revolves around machine, a widow who's been single for a while and has a daughter living abroad. not your average protagonist of a film, especially not in iran. and when it premiered at the barely, natalie, the chairs of the director deal were empty. their absence made all the clearer by the photos serving as placeholders. mario a mole cut um and they tosh. so i know you were not permitted to leave iran. it was a surprising decision creating a scandal at the festival, but they had

a clear message for the audience. delivery fi access really far, hard for them to give will base on past the 7 this time we, we decided to cross all the restrictive red line. come on me and accept the consequences for our choice. but bulk of buddha i've looked into call to pain to real picture. i'll be writing in women about the as then. you don't need that as an image that has been banned from the rain in cinema, about 12, ever since the atlantic revolutions on my move, who dies challenge for decades. filming women without avail has been strictly forbidden. in around it is one of the red lines that the film crosses and a front to the censorship also, or the screw. this thing, when my hand finally takes action, she ends up meeting a divorced man. they fall in love, spend the night together, entering some wine, alcohol and intimacy, big taboos in a rainy and films. another 2 red lines crossed by the direct to go to the slits of

of, to assume that these, these are quite wonderful. thank you. i live on king for he has been enough to smoke diamonds. i know you dedicate their film to the women. any round who risk their lives for freedom. what other consequences the feeling will have for the directors remains to be seen. so to shift to resend chavez and they give just how much they have risked and how daring their film is, becomes obvious when looking at the list of imprisoned directors and actors and iran just are part of the, the country's best known director, prison sentences travel and occupational band director and mohammed russell imprisonment, house arrest and travel band actress telling a lead to state jail. and after showing solidarity with protesters in her home

country, filmmaker cave on cutting me sentence to 6 years in prison and 223 launches the women at a soccer match into iran. telling us to refuse documentary is also courageous. it portrays the generation of militant activists in their forties a generation that grew up after the islamic revolution with no experience of real freedom, many ordinary norm on every day in things that you are not able to decide about that. they are decided. this is about the life me nice and a story. mothers generation live through the 70s with dance music editorial life

but now belongs to the past. probably not a sheriff. he has been collecting private recordings. searching for images of an alternative history of a round name is what i mean or she's homeless. you may need one on one car loans and then go more day. hello jane, don't you'll hosta memories of a time of no fails when public life and life and that protected home. the outside empty inside were not yet completely separated world. even as a child, she had to learn how to create her own world to be free. before it was outside and we didn't have to different find of places inside and outside. that's after the revolution. and many things happening inside the these have to have this norm on life. though her generation still dances,

it's done in secret and under constant pressure of being discovered. but on the street, the law of the milan supplies, it's the law of violence that women are fighting so vehemently against the son of a nice and a landing is also a documentary filmmaker from taylor on. she's interested in the younger generation . those born around the turn of the millennium. ready ready ready she admires their courage. this is amazing that they don't give all they know what they want. nothing kind of stop them. i really like about this. a spirit . she fits this description might have goal and 18 a rose marie, tie fighter. the other side of me. because i know

she belongs to a totally connected generation, but looks far beyond the borders of its own country, with the young women confidently demanding their rights to travel to westside. it was unusual. joseph judy from this the study was you don't see the ocean made the eyes so very important. it has a good impact on the people that are on the board. and you can't imagine even the young to be signing the lease and doesn't have that much defend from the young generation in other countries might have goals, fight for freedom does not go on hold. and she and her mother faced another widespread problem is domestic violence center of this game, which is, which is as soon,

almost the most the can you do for fighting spirits remains unbroken. yeah. uh, how may or that might you have one more to mind for me then when i to go about another. um, all we do is to be drawing me a single it is on the small because i can send the sonya bus. there, to the film's have a common thread. they show us women who take shape into their own hands by defying the rules of the uranian government on screen, just as they are doing in real life. they were demonstrations of solidarity in connection with the screenings of your writing and filmmakers as it been and not a festival. the words gen g on as a d could be seen on the, demonstrates as post this policy for women life freedom. it's the slogan that helps spock and unprecedented results in the pool of 2022. as a full friend,

the women of iran was old and increase. the protests were sparks by the death of a young woman, gina masa, i'm any. she was arrested in tehran by then. a tori is morality, police, or crime not being dressed as to the law requires. after her arrest, she collapsed and the police station. she was taken to a hospital with severe head injuries and died shortly afterwards. gina's family is certain that her death was the result of police brutality and unprecedented ways of protests. greek, the nation. the murderer of my so, i mean, i leashed this rage and it gave them

a way to explode. women life freedom became the rally and cries the protests. the women had had enough of to hit job. this is it's very, very important. the head scarf is a symbol of dis, nomic government to schools became the side of protest. young people rose up and then this deeply patriarchal society, another form of revolution has been taking place. women are receiving strong solidarity from man coordinate to meet the entire rainy and society has filled the consequences of suppressing freedoms which corruption, publishing, and discrimination to guard uranium pop star, media ra. he is one of the minis, was paid dearly for supporting the women's feet dedicated this song to them. in august 2023, it encourages women to take off their head scarves. the machine declared his

actions illegal and he was arrested the, the state responded to the protests with extreme violence. more than 20000 people had been arrested so far. death sentences had been carried out. more than 2000 school girls were poisoned, many suspect the regime. but there have been no conclusive investigations the 16 year old because shuck around me was abducted at a demo engine present. later her body was found with the marks of tortures. the regime declared a suicide. since the beginning of their result, people all over the world have students solidarity with the radium women. they're also demanding an end to the rainy and dictatorship. for freedom,

international female celebrities and other women cause part of their hair and posted the images online. hair is political, it says a rainy and must see aline, judge for years, she's been campaigning in exile for feminist issues. i ask women why that they want to share their pictures with me. so the moment of freedom with me, i was bombarded by pictures from them and inside the wrong being conveyed so i created my associates freedom page on facebook and instagram, and it's all about freedom, its own about dignity, its own about choice. for nearly 90 years, randy and women's hair has been the subject of political and religious battles. the headstones no head storage.

it's always been up to men to make this decision for women without their se restaurant shop. former shaw of a run wanted to use educational reforms and repression to modernize the use. lemme country. in 1936, he bands women from wearing head scarves. for him, it was a symbol that went against his idea of progress. however, in 1941 with sasha was forced to abdicate his son. it seemed power and continue to push ahead with modernization. under mohammed was a parcel of the women were given a chance to break away from traditional rules and did 1963. they were given the right to vote, that under the previous regime we had several freedoms and we were allowed to join in with new aspects of society. on may, the new sean once again allowed women to wear the headscarf in public. but he went

on to establish a fruitful dictatorship, progressive and left wing forces opposed to him. as did the islamist revolution followed and the sean was deposed. the the islamists took power. i had to so many declared the hit job compulsory for women. going out wearing makeup without a job is like going out and make it. this is not in keeping with a woman's position by doing so. they turned themselves into those left as to like the islamist fought against the shot were in disbelief. i was in the newspaper and she dawes and uh, be heard in or they do adults, we have to have your post will have the jobs from tomorrow. the girl that had a very short skirt and one of my friends just took here her skirt and

call the and the could see those. so we just lost them. no, that didn't believe that among us were serious. many women were outraged. they took to the streets and protest. left us saw this as to the trail of their revolution. like now he passion service. tony went on to make documentaries. the left space of the many, many more then there is lum is but they, they're more organized on the that they sent me. that's why they belong. when they did the revolution against the shaw, the just wanted just these to be just the wanted democracy. but what we get was 1000 times more stun to show stretching a regime of terror followed over the coming years. many who were involved in

politics were driven into exile like the family of journalist and author guild us the heavy. she writes about iran from germany and about the meaning of the compulsory head job. he's a landscaping. this form of control is very important. just have down this looking . does this repression is one of the pendants. if the machine, because it pours half of the population and it's so so and creates a platform to build that ideal naji above it. you do hear how strong these lumnick republics have run, relies on maintaining power over women. their rights are systematically removed, and a woman is only worth half as much as a man. literally, a woman's voice only counts for half in court. if a woman dies in an accident, the family receives half the compensation as though women weren't full human beings

. long the most important rock we lost was that identity out identity as human beings. women are prohibited from doing so many things like singing or dancing, or wearing what they want and everything is sexualized. so it allows you to use the huge jet, nothing forced from an interest to the model. this is a way of looking at the female body that's a place of citizen, and by that it means that a woman's body, one of them is head and a woman's being humiliated on. but how does that along with this humiliation? men are also humiliated. bravo invested in my palm 1006 while it has ex you on the t nice that the course of my to speak is a free woman has complete freedom to decide on his sexuality and come she definitely it's on her room whether to have sex and how evans, whether she wants children, no not easy. honestly, extreme is only deal logy aims to control the extent assessment and it will be

comfortable in this form of control over women is the central to be, is limits pushing the phones and 5. let me now find more powerful demand and i think that creates the space perfect to so for us, women, if they want to build a state one by violence, a terrorist, they divide because if women are free and want to exercise the freedom inside of these guys, come and keep doing what they want and come to the to punishment. so they lock women up. they carry a mass arrest in prison. women experience 1st hand just how cruel the government's display of power can get the heat partial on the surface, donnie brought together former prisoners to make a documentary film. what happened to them after they were arrested needing the check engine portion of the building. nice to

can do this monday, this home is that the push then is i think i'm the cheese and i want to just enjoy them. is to know that the people that, that interest you, judy will be doing a whole bunch of places. you know, the building that long enough for them to start. ha ha, ha ha, shred that said they could, the 70 or them. is that the sure many here that really speaking that little problem . shasta, when he done it in my study taking those had this one, i mean, one of the women featured in film wrote a book about her 9 years in prison and the torture she experienced. there. you and you have a great, nice 9 years of presentation. and us and seeing how people would just execute it on a well. and he get a shift organ and 0, but it kind of touch bruce, we'll talk chester again and brutal reeducation process to see if she wants further testing the machine. people need to know what happened is on a mission, what's best here to someone stuff to does he rock into my mouth and someone

started putting my feet involuntarily, i withdrew my leg and scream to scream. that was like an animal. then i don't remember anything. stopping myself, most of what executions, torture and rape became political tools that are still used today. or monday should very leticia. anybody have any one imprisoned for political reasons? first goes into solitary confinement with the c o. c. cut them off from the outside world to get me the a cuba, if you just say, don't have the right to a lawyer to the son of like you to have it and they tortured until they testify against them. so and got in the afternoon on time, get ready to purchase from houses that are protests that began in 2022 were not the

1st for decades, people had been taken to the streets hoping for democracy in vain. huge protests broke out in 2009. it was our tractor trailer and for a few weeks we had the feeling of being as close to our target as never before. they were protesting must mood, us medina, todd's ultra conservative administration, accusing them of electro fraud. the machine's response was fruitful. people were shot and tortured or disappeared without a trace. the so called green movement failed. the protest as was focusing on one particular issue in 2009, it was against the vote. rigging, loader, missile and the cold of the protest is at the time was what happened to my thoughts

and the special order drain would get my m, i cool kind of not in 2009 protests took place basically within the system demonstrate to set that up being an actual fraud and that votes weren't counted, but they weren't demanding for the system to be taken down in the front of the surface. the most part of the next waves of protests didn't call the system itself into question either in 2019, for instance, it was the increase in gas prices. and once again, the got and violently crack down on the demonstrations the but with the protests that started in 2022, there is more at stake. demonstrators are campaigning to top of the whole regime. they want for decades worth of crimes to the atoned for this time is not the economy is not, unemployment is not water is the woman this

revolutionary movement is more radical than all the others before. and it's still going strong with women at the home of the family. this is the 1st feminist revolution in the world. then the outcome pain is woman life. freedom. well, that's only possible in a democratic secular system. let's say ok. since the mass protests began in 2022, women have kept up the fight. there was this thing in new ways and standing up for their beliefs. breaking the rules, showing their hair, making music, and dancing. women are losing their fear. even though they faced increasingly draconian punishments, somebody like you said,

the people going back to the way they want. because that's too much hate for the regime. that's actually often how much violence they've accessed always in the past month. quite often in the past. yeah, that's, yeah, i absolutely cannot imagine people going back from is absolutely false to about, especially to look in shadow. yes, it shows everything seems to demonstrate that these women have no intention of giving up the testing for the another. they continuing their resistance. i'm in pretty full and of course, you know, it's only me that in my opinion, this regime will be toppled. but it may take some time because i want to uh, well connect to the to say no matter how long it takes it, rainy and women are showing determination. mark, i am proud if you will, and i know that you will succeed and that will do this and won't let me that i'm to most of the women life freedom,
