Hot off the press

A film by Nafiss Nia

was selected for the International Documentary Film Festival Aljazeera 

(18-23 april 2012, Doha-Qatar)

comments from viewers: nice and confronting. Tender and deep. Personal yet universal. Subtly touching! Very political film in a most refined way!!




Going back 18 years in time: the Dutch-Iranian Poet & film maker Nafiss Nia looks back on the time when she, as a refugee, learned the Dutch language from three retired ladies in a backroom of a church. Through her poetry, Nafiss delves into her memories of a time when the first seeds of a still growing love for the Dutch language were sown, when words such as ‘integration’ were not high on the political agenda.

This film was financed by crowdfunding.
