Golshifteh Farahani: The Exiled Icon Bridges Art and Activism in Exclusive Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung Feature

The historical context of Franco-German relations, and Europe's complex ties with the Middle East, also lend a layer of depth to the feature. Farahani, who is primarily based in France, represents the European cultural acceptance of exiled artists from the region. Her presence in the FAZ, a bastion of German intellectualism, highlights a unified European cultural front that supports artists who have lost their ability to work in their homelands due to political censorship.
