Projects
Niloofar is currently working on her feature film, inspired by her journey to fight cancer and what she has existentially gone through on this battlefield, and how she could cast meaning in her life by recollecting her remembrance; the script is in development.
Also, she works on a photography series titled Home, inspired by her experience of migration, to portray how being displaced has reshaped the concept of home for her and how she has dealt with her memories and emotions in exile from her homeland. She invites the viewer to participate and explore concepts related to home as a site of origin and belonging and a place where significant memories are located.
