In Iran, many rights of women are suppressed under the name of protecting women. Women are always in a passive position in the frame of marriage law. Entertainment is forbidden for women and female singers are not allowed to give open performances. HK is a traditional place advocating for freedom and women in HK may freely pursue for their own love, dream and lifestyle. I chose to have an Iranian girl, who worked for a theater, reproduce a dialogue between the deceased HK female star Anita Mui and her fans in a private car. The dialogue shows the free pursuit of Anita Mui for love and marriage. I am attempting to seek for the differences and common points presented by people from different nations and areas in the same story frame, and also hope to show the attitude of Iranian women toward life and emotion through such a kind of performance and review the free space for people under the governance of totalitarianism.
