She graduated from Tehran University of Art in 2020, and she is one of the very few Iranian students that has been attracted by professionals in the film industry of Iran while studying. She ranked 8 among 150,000 participants in the Iranian Konkur (national university entrance exam) in 2015, and since that time she is a member of Iran's National Elite Foundation. Among Iranian public audiences, she is mostly known because of her act as the leading actress in Lottery 2018- a film that not only got the attention of the film reviewers and juries but also holds the record of the most sale in the Fajr Film Festival (the most prestigious film festival in Iran) for all the time. Even though she has started her acting career successfully, she doesn't want to leave her main point of interest, telling remarkable stories about her society as a filmmaker. She's directed Barter in 2020 with Emad Arad. They met each other in a short project finding that they have a lot of common social concerns, as well as common sense about their artistic visions which lead them to cooperate in the Barter as their first film. A film that is the result of their intense social concerns representing complicated aspects of family relationships.
After eight years abroad, Farhad returns to Iran and steps into the world he once left behind. Wealth, status, and charm place him at the center of constant attention, yet his heart belongs to a single face. A girl from a forgotten dream. A memory from childhood. Her name is Fargol. Quiet, graceful, and raised in a modest family, she appears again in Farhad’s life like a fragile echo of the past. Their reunion sparks a love that feels destined, yet every step draws them into a web of class differences, family expectations, and a fate far harsher than either imagines. Farhad’s closest friend, Hooman, fights his own battle. A rich young man in love with a girl far outside his social circle. Their parallel struggles reflect a society where love and reality collide, and the cost of choosing the heart grows steep. But the true key to the story lies with an elderly woman named Parichehr. Her life, marked by heartbreak, secrets, and survival, becomes a mirror that reveals what love endures and what it destroys. As her past unfolds, Farhad and Fargol find their own future hanging in the balance. A romantic drama woven with social tensions
