Daughter explores one of the most crucial issues in the history of Iran's society in a century: tradition versus modernity. Without her strict father’s permission, an 18 year-old girl secretly takes a plane from the south of Iran to Tehran to attend a close friend’s going away party. When hazy weather prevents her return, her father drives all night to find her and bring her home, but she won’t go back without a fight. Features A Separation’s Merila Zare'i.
Speaker: Dr. Roza Khorshidi, a family therapist originally from Iran, who specializes in the emotional connection between couples, parent and child, and brother and sister.
