Journey Beyond Fear

Filmed over 7 years, this is a story of love as much as a tale of persecution. Zahra and her family are Muslim refugees searching for re-settlement. Her parents, both orphans in Afghanistan, fled to Iran to continue their forbidden love for each other where Zahra and her two sisters are born. Here, they suffer persecution and witness severe brutality towards Afghan refugees. The children are not permitted to attend school and the family is in constant fear of being deported to Afghanistan.
