Life of immigrants in countries, especially Afghans in Iran were always concerned me, so when I got the chance to make my short film I started looking around.

Financial and citizenship rights is the first line of challenges to survive for Afghan immigrants.

My core story triggered when I saw girl dressing like a man in subway, I could tell she was working as labor by her clothes.

”Mahnazir is an Afghan girl dressing as his father in order to save their home”, as many Baghdadi Brick burning workshop citizens do, and their home is loaned to them in the guarantee of working as labor.

But I needed a new angle, financial crisis has so many complications.

It can make humans to change and even undermine who their really are, make them change their appearance and even their identity.

There working children’s and again Afghan kids working in crossways, it is common to see a boy dressed as a girl to provoke the guilt sense of other people to give them more money, of course that money would not help their situation as most of it goes to supervisors that illegally managing them.

I loved the contrast, a boy dressing as girl and a girl dressing as a man in order to survive, I liked it, and it felt like discovering a new point of view.
