Synopsis

Hajar fights for self-determination in male-dominated Iran. Archival footage from 1976 shows her at eight, taking part in Bakhtiari tribe traditions. But betrayal by her family forces her to abandon the nomadic life. Climate change, modernization, and social shifts have drastically reduced the Bakhtiari tribe’s migratory lifestyle in Southwestern Iran.
