Thank God, you stood on the second side. Despite all the deceit and evil. May God not afflict you and the families you have built. I love you. I'm glad you exist."
"MY DEAR MOTHER, I WILL SOON MAKE YOUR FILM"
My dear mother.. You could neither experience your childhood nor your youth. And among your children, I know best what you went through. I will soon make your film, 'Fareli Ev'. I hope this film, a slice of my real life, reminds my family, who have lost their memory, where they came from.
