Director Narges Shahid Kalhor no longer wants to be called "Shahid" (martyr). She is supposed to set about changing the family name. Suddenly, her bizarre great-grandfather appears, who was declared a martyr. The format of the film shifts between reality, fiction, theatre and musical. The film questions all kinds of radical ideologies - while not taking itself all too seriously either. Shahid is a personal film about the balancing act between coming to terms with the past, with the present, and with one's own self.
The film's director will come to Hanoi and talk to the public after the screening.
