The webcam witnessed it all: from the strange snowfall in Isfahan to Mitra telling stories of her prison time and Hasan insisting on hearing his son's last night dream. A decade of family togetherness, online, between Isfahan and Berlin.

“I never intended to make a faithful documentary about the Fesharaki family. What interested me most were the little narratives that emerge when people love each other. I found the moments recorded by the loyal webcam incredibly precious, which I was indeed able to rely on in the end, as everything that took place in front of it was grounded in love and longing.

And maybe through this film, the spectator will get a picture of a family and realise how the beloved revolution of my parents’ generation was stolen from them and how the brutal oppression that followed ruined not only their lives, but also those of their children. But there is one thing that keeps us all together: hope.”
