I have found Iranians to be some of the most nostalgic people, hanging on to their past a lot. They constantly compare their life before and after the 1979 Islamic Revolution. The state of cinema and television is one of the areas they often talk about in awe.
This is an example of an actress before and after.
Parisa is a journalism graduate from the University of Massachusetts Amherst and is currently a MFA Creative non-Fiction writing candidate at Goucher College. She began writing about her native country, Iran, at her personal blog IranStories.com to share everything she loves about Iran and Iranians, minus all the politics (if that's possible).
Tired of being asked the most basic questions about Iran, all based on stereotypes and lies, Parisa just wanted to provide a pure image of what life is like in Iran...what is it like to be an Iranian woman. Now, Parisa brings her I Heart Iran section from IranStories.com exclusively to Aslan Media.
