‘Where we find happiness
teaches us
what we value
rather than simply
what is of  value.’
 
Sara Ahmed

A native of Tehran, I studied photography, screenwriting and audio-visual media.

My long-standing passion for journalism
led me to embark on a video journalist career -
a period during which I covered and reported
on many terrains including Libya prior to the
civil war.

I have also worked as a cinematographer and
editor with various multi-award winning
directors, and,  since 2011, as an independent
video artist and filmmaker.

Maybe because of my many years of experience
in video journalism, I have increasingly become interested in research-based work.

My work is of a biographical nature and tries
to explore the space between political-social narratives and personal realms, mainly through observation. 

'Berlinstan' was founded by me in 2018 as an independent production company.
