This clandestine documentary, shot partially on an iPhone and smuggled into France in a cake for a last-minute submission to Cannes, depicts the day-to-day life of acclaimed director Jafar Panahi (Offside, The Circle) during his house arrest in his Tehran apartment. While appealing his sentence - six years in prison and a 20 year ban from filmmaking - Panahi is seen talking to his family and lawyer on the phone, discussing his plight with Mirtahmasb and reflecting on the meaning of the art of filmmaking. In Persian with English subtitles.

The film is being shown in conjunction with Sheida Soleimani's exhibition Flyways at the Institute for the Humanities March 19 - May 1, 2026 and will be followed by a conversation with Sheida Soleimani, Matthew Biro (History of Art), moderated by arts curator Amanda Krugliak.
