This documentary is about the daughter (Sara Nodjoumi) of two Iranian artists who married and fled the country. The film shares Sara's attempts to make sense of her family's story and who her father (Nicki Nodjoumi) is as a person while they work together to try to retrieve his work, critical of what came to pass after the revolution, from Tehran. A story about the role of artists in revolutionary action and the fallout of Iranian politics from the time of the Shah to today.
