Event Information:
In her 2009 feature-film debut, renowned Iranian visual artist Shirin Neshat offers an exquisitely crafted view of Iran in 1953, when a British- and American-backed coup removed the democratically elected government. Adapted from the novel by Iranian author Shahrnush Parsipur, the film weaves together the stories of five individual women during those traumatic days, whose experiences are shaped by their faith and the social structures in place.

Bridget Ikin is a freelance producer. A consistent thread through her more than 20 years of producing is Bridget’s preference to collaborate with writers and directors exploring personal material in challenging and artistically distinctive stories. Her most recent production is the three part documentary series Art + Soul with Indigenous curator Hettie Perkins. Her films include Jane Campion’s An Angel at My Table, Sarah Watt’s Look Both Ways and My Year Without Sex and Alison Maclean’s early films (Kitchen Sink and Crush).
