I met Sanaz in Auburn. Although she doesn’t live there, her and Amin travel to Auburn every week to do their weekly food shop - they make a day of it – she loves the multicultural and vibrant nature of the town – people on the streets, writers groups and good Persian restaurants. We talked about some of her areas of interest – Iranian literature and diaspora; ‘outsiders’ within a community; film and screenwriting - her and Amin have recently spent time in Afghanistan making a documentary about self-immolation of women there and are interested in making work around, increasing awareness and fundraising for some of these areas of interest.
