Narges Mohammadi, who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for 2023, is incarcerated in Iran and has spent many months in isolation.

This film, made while she was out of prison for a short period in 2021, tells the story about fellow prisoners and human rights activists who have experiences so called “white torture”.

Isolation is a highly effective way to break down a person's psyche, without leaving any external physical marks. The film is a powerful and shocking testimony of the situation for political prisoners and activists in Iran.
