Project Overview
Her Story aims to capture and share the diverse experiences of Iranian women , focusing on personal stories that highlight the identity, culture, mindset, traditions and the everyday moments that shape our lives. We collect these voices for our Instagram Series titled "Unfiltered" and/or our future documentary.

1. What was the motivation/intent of this project?

The motivation behind this film stems from two women of Iranian descent who not only wish to share their own stories but also aim to gather the narratives of other women to create a collective voice on themes of identity and lived experiences.

2. When is the due date for submissions?

There are no due dates. We'd like to get submissions for both the Unfiltered IG Series and our future documentary.

3. If I want to remain anonymous, can I include initials only?

Absolutely. We will always respect the wishes of the participant. Please note that you have a 10-day window after submitting your work to withdraw your participation should you change your mind.

4. What are the formats in which I can submit my story?

You can submit your story in video, written, or audio formats. Please refer to specific instructions to ensure the highest quality recording.

5. What are the things that will disqualify a submission?

To ensure your submission is considered, please avoid including content containing profanity, political themes, racism, or similar divisive topics.

6. Will my submission be included?

While we will thoroughly review each submission, inclusion is not guaranteed due to factors such as the Series or film's length and tone.

7. If I'm unsure about the direction of my work and need guidance, what should I do?
