Lilaya Sanctuary: Triumph and Resilience in Golshifteh Farahani’s Adopted Daughter’s Graduation Journey

Exile and Activism

Farahani’s career took a controversial turn following her appearance in international productions like “Body of Lies.” Her decision to appear without a hijab in these films led to her being labeled as someone who violated Islamic law and collaborated with Western propaganda. Consequently, she has been unable to return to Iran and has chosen to reside in France since 2009.

Despite her exile, Farahani has remained vocal on various social and political issues. She has been an advocate for women’s rights and has publicly supported protests against government policies. Her activism extends to environmental causes and the eradication of tuberculosis in Iran, demonstrating her commitment to social justice and humanitarian efforts.
