A story of Reza, a documentary director from Iran. In 2016, after being blacklisted by the Islamic Republic regime of Iran, Reza, and his family are forced to leave their home and start anew in Los Angeles. Despite his expertise and talent, he faces numerous challenges, including a language barrier and limited connections in the film industry, that hinder his return to directing. Through perseverance and determination, Reza finds a new passion in film editing. This new-found skill not only gives him a sense of purpose but also becomes his means of overcoming the obstacles he faces. After seven years of silence about his exile, when the Iranian Revolution breaks out, Reza feels a strong urge to use his editing skills to document the stories of the protesters and reclaim his voice.
