The Forgotten Women Maryam Hosseinkhah

'Forgotten Women', tells the life stories of 14 women incarcerated in the public ward of Evin Prison in Tehran, Iran. Some narrations reflect documented lives, some are constructed as a mixture of imagination and reality, at times using pieces from the lives of other female prisoners or incidents happening in the daily life of the ward, and some others are comprised of the exact manuscripts of women longing to be heard from the behind the bars.
