The recent documentary Taraneh has received millions of views. It follows Taraneh Alidoosti, one of Iran’s most acclaimed and influential actresses, whose career spans nearly three decades and includes leading roles in landmark films and the iconic television series Shahrzad. Following the murder of Mahsa Amini, which ignited the “Woman, Life, Freedom” uprising, Alidoosti publicly aligned herself with the protest movement, becoming one of its most prominent and outspoken voices.
