Tonight, we stopped by Ladan and Ali's house to have some tea and mini croissants with them and Ladan's father, who had just arrived back from Iran. We got into a discussion around us potenatially visiting Ali and Ladan in Tehran this fall, until they explained that I would have to wear a headscarf. And that no, a winter hat would not suffice. To further illustrate exactly what I would have to wear (see above), Ali looked up a video from Panagea Day — a global event about bringing the world together through film, all ofthe films you can watch here — which shows two Iranian women taking the train. The film is called "The Slap" and you can check it out here. I have not had the time (and when I do, the place does not have enough bandwidth) to watch all of the films yet. But the ones that I have watched are fabulous.
