Beautiful film.. Farah is truly a lady, she has a humble heart, she shares her joy even though she went to a tragic event in her life.. The film maker bold but polite..
Nahid, you and your crew have made a wonderful film. It's quite realistic! Your expressions, your thoughts referred to your past and present are quite convincing, no pretense, just what you felt . You showed us a glimpse of a woman who had almost everything one can hope for and still she underwent very hard situations as a wife and mother. I think you should be proud of your film! You have the capacity of reaching out to people's hearts, at least that was what happened to me.
uau, this film is breathtaking from the beginning to the end. it is at the same time heartbreaking and full of hope! I didnt even know about Farah until now, but after I clicked on the video's icon out of curiosity, I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. Congratulations to both the Queen of Iran and the film maker!
What a wonderful film!! Two people from different walks of life getting to know each other and discovering their love and passion for their motherland they can't wait to go back to. Both very genuine and lovely individuals.
my king and my queen have served Iran in the best way imaginable. people should not think that they can rule better . I am a monarchist and know that democracy is not for Iran . For 5100 years we had kings to guide us ,that Is how we prevailed our civilization. freedom of speech is not the reason for the revolution. It was that the people were ungrateful for what they had. now my people suffer for what they did and call for the monarchy to return.
J Nicholas-Windsor I been trying to send a letter. I almost try to kill myself and her book enduring love helped to overcome my depression. Can you advise me on how to get in contact with her majesty’s office.I just wish to send a letter regarding on how her life helped me. I mean no harm it will be appreciated.
I agree...the Empress is not haughty or arrogant, but humble, loyal, compassionate, and a mother figure for myself and other compatriots. Just the way that she stopped to take a picture with the two girls in Paris, and how she actually takes time to reply to the people who contact her says a lot to her humility. Iran really lost a gem in 1979, among others. Health and happiness to H.M. and the rest of the Imperial family 💞
MF Dixon really? I didn't know anything about the queen before but she really seems like an elegant, graceful lady. The filmmaker, her I don't feel so kindly towards. She complained about the Shah and how the people were treated under his rule, but she was a part of a revolution that killed people and suppressed free speech, and she seems to have little to no misgivings about doing so. If we're me, I think I feel terrible that I helped bring the Khomeini and mullahs into power.
I am trying to find words to describe my reaction to the film....ultimately I think it reeks of compassion and maturity, as well as history. I stumbled across this after reading "Daughter of Persia" written by Sattareh Farmen Farmaian. You are all daughters of Persia, and as a woman, you inspire me, and I feel proud. Thank you for making this. An incredible process for me to watch, as both women confront, their pain with courage. Thank you.
Wow! This is a wonderful film. It has a unique feminist perspective that conveys both compassion and forgiveness. By the end one can't help falling for both the Princess and the Director because of their endearing modesty and charm.
wow- this is powerful- I recently updated my book to include more information about the Persian Empire- I wish I had seen this film first- it has opened my eyes to another whole side of Persia. Kudos. Well Done.
THANK YOU FOR UPLOADING THIS DOCUMENTARY AND SUBTITLING IT AS WELL! I'VE WANTED TO SEE THIS DOCUMENTARY FOR 10 YEARS!! THANK YOU - ITS IS ABSOLUTELY FASCINATING! THE FILMMAKER IS BRILLIANT AND SO INTELLIGENT!
thànk you for such a beautiful film..I admire Farah for being able to stand through those difficult moments and come 6out strong to the end. I wish for both women good health and happy ending.
In our motherland we had a idiom described a senario of one worse regime in exchange of the first bad one, we call that "when dogs have left swines have come"
@@Laurence0227 Mossadegh wanted to get rid of the Shah. The truth is we don’t know what would have happened under Mossadegh either. He could have been like Stalin and we could have gone down the road of being like Russia.
It was a marvelous documentary. I Thoroughly enjoyed it . I envy NahidJan from Sweden . I wish I could meetup with The Queen . I am certain my dream of meeting her face to face shall come true one day .Amen with all my love and respect to the Pahlavi dynasty. 💝
I too liked both these women more as a consequence of this journey Nahid put ,me through. It was very cathartic for me. This was my second viewing and I liked it just as much as the first time. Thank you for making a unique movie. BTW, I couldn't find this movie anywhere. Thanks to LadyRohan for making it available!
Beauty deep inside, all natural despite the pains of the past. Beautiful women in history like Evita Peron, Imelda Marcos and the Farah. Beautiful documentary.
I am in 4 th grade when this happened . Iam from India. I felt very sad without much knowledge as a kid. My question in my heart as a kid how can they remove a king ? I thought to my self I swear as a kid something is happening very bad. Yes I agree people of Iran lost their beautiful country by over throwing Shah the Great. I remember even from India Doctors used to go to Iran and work cos of better salary. In this changing world people are still believing old fundamentals. No religion is great in this world. Every religion is same and equal. why ? because of politics. Innocent kids are dying. I dont know where the world is going? I want to visit Iran but scared? Very good country when I was a kid. God should help.
Well as far as I can see and hear, Iranians are way growing against the Islamic regime. Women are rebelling against the compulsory hijab everyday. The young will definitely save the country.
She is extremely loyal to her husband and family anticiapated from Eastern people. She is also an Aryan this is much anticipated from her. Remember this mighty Race moved from Central Asia and toughing regions of Indian subcontinent Westwards. A fellow Aryan to most Indians.

This is what happens when the evils of radical Islam takes over...long live her majesty...and I think it is sort of shitty to record her majesty without her consent.
As usual it’s so lovely to see her majesty, Empress Farah but the film maker seem to have forgotten that she is speaking to the Queen, I find her rude by the way she talks to her or ask questions.
What happened? There was another version of this documentary on CZcams in English with subtitles only when Her Imperial Majesty and the film-maker were speaking with each other in Farsi!! Can't seem to find that version now.
That woman IS quite a woman. I watched the other film entitled, "Tehran to Cairo, " and it was quite a revelation. I shouldn't have been surprised by the negative American news coverage of her husband at the time. The left is even worse today with its lies and distortions of history. I admire both the Shah and his lovely wife and their good work in Iran, and I was stunned that she has such a hopeful outlook for the future of Iran. God bless her from where I am - the US.
In a non monarchy most of the time: ‘A multitudes of leaders and self proclaimed leaders always destroy the stability under one stable of succession via a single dynasty.’ Hoping that those living in former Iranian Kingdom Finally learned the lesson.’ Question: Which is more likely to happen a multitudes to be wise and Vile OR a single head and Leader to be wise and sometimes imperfect? Well i going to chose the second: Monarchy. The rule and reign of 1. Just a friendly opinion❤️❤️
Two brave ladies both humane & determined, both made to suffer by power hungry ideologues. It never changes, those attracted to politics for the purpose of wresting power from an opposition debase human communication and relationships - and cause horror and fear to the majority as a result of the methodology of "means to an end" making promises to the majority they know they have no intention of keeping - and those that destroy history & traditional cultures are always brutal and inhumane - leaving people with nothing but fear.
1:14:00 She is right, all Iranian Communist Party left, which were fighting Shah left Iran and went to Europe or America. Even the girl, who report it ... why they didn't go to any communist coutry if it was that good... ?? Another point is the People doesn't think, that we had another time Shah did a lot for Iran. He needed more time ... He had good Ideas, we could have peace even in middle east .. Ok USA and Uk didn't want this
she is more Queen than any queen in the Europe..love you Always the Persian Empress..and to you filmmaker go and make a film about till exempel Silvia or that ugly Queen of England.
Kay Sugliano The film is subtitled in Norwegian, not Danish, and English. You can see both sets of subtitles at the bottom of the screen. The English text is smaller than the Norwegian one, as per youtube-standard. Enjoy!
So glad ikept watching this film she is truly a royal. So sad but very touching. I have always disliked everything about Iran but there is good that comes out of there.
"We would do a disservice to Khomeini to consider him simply as a symbol of segregated education and an opponent to women's rights," said the then-head of the State Department Intelligence Bureau, Philip Stoddard."
The first Shia Imam, Ali bin Abutaleb cousin and son in law of Mohammad bin Abdulah in his book has preached and advised his follower, Muslim men not to trust their wives or women since they are born with under-developed brain. I was shocked when I first learned about Ali's statement, perhaps because his wife was the daughter of the messenger, Fatemeh Zahra. But the events in 1979 in Iran proved to me that Ali's statement about Muslim women is absolute and accurate. For example Shirin Ebadi the Nobel prize winner, Farah Diba the wife of late Mohammad Reza Shah of Iran, Simin Daneshvar the wife of a Shia kleric, Shokouh Mirzvadegi and Simin Behbahani just to name a few to lead women by millions in Tehran's streets to shout "Down with the Shah, viva Khomeini"
Thats Ashamed Nahid!!But I enjoyed ur film.specialy Becouse you were not rude to My Queen.Is realy sad that you fell into that communist trap.What you did not know that Shah did many good things that you did not know.I encourage you to look at the base for communist regimes carefully.Just like liberals here in USA they promise lots of thing that sounds so grand and specialy to young minds and poor.But they want poor to be poor and youngs to brain wash.I comand you for making this film.And Im sooo proud of my Queen to let you do so.She could of refused.Thats what you learned from her.Also one other thing the people arround Shah were not his friends.They did not want people to like him and they did not report the truth about the anguished people felt.I think they thought they will not have their cushion job they had if they do so.Thats why Queen made special surprized visits.She helped many but the Soviets got to you and ones like you sooner.
This channel is, like all other private youtube channels, managed, and spam, repeated posts with the same content, propaganda or anything else deemed inappropriate is removed. There are multiple channels where abuse of the Royal Family, the Shah or the previous governance of Iran is welcomed, and I suggest you avail yourself of one of those to share your views. This however, is not the place to do so. Further infringements will lead to a ban on your attempted 'contributions', and no further warnings is given.

Alter Ego The Empress known as Shahbanou (meaning roughly "the Lady of the King" ) is a Shia (which is a branch of Islam) Muslim like the majority of Iranians.
As a chinese who is still missing ROC, I felt very sad while whatching this film. Kill young people and then ask their parrents for bullet cost, same stories happened in Mao`s reigin. ROC goverment is bad, perhaps very bad during his time. So people belived all utopia lies spoken by CCP. They promised the chinese of feedom and democracy. They shown everyone a great vision that after we follow them to get rid of the west imperialism (Especially US, CCP claimed the ROC goverment is a puppet of US. But meanwhile ROC had been economic sancted by US for a whole year since 1946, the time ROC government started to quell commy`s insurgent.), every person can live wealthily. Then a familiar horrible tragedy happend in my homeland too. Russian Empire executed 191 political prisoner during 1825 to 1905. But after the October Revolution, Bolsheviks excuted over 100000 people in first month. Russia, China, Korea, Vietnam, Iran...People just made same mistakes again and again.
The worst thing about this documentary if the narration and the script that only a naive filmmaker can use dealing with a former queen. People should always be considerate of their language and expressions when dealing with any celebrities. The only observation I had was that the filmmaker was evolved to a better character in term of her dressing and understanding of the occasions by the time the documentary is done. You see how the documentary starts with a messed up bedroom and ends up to a tidy room. That's the effect that the former Queen had on her without intention. There are better documentaries which are available about Queen Farah Pahlavi and the best is reading the book written by her.
Ramin Abdollahi As with any documentary made by individual and independent filmmakers, this one is also heavily influenced by the choices and opinions of the filmmaker herself. I would agree that some of the language used for narration and dialogue with Her Imperial Majesty is unimpressive, but I don't think it detracts from the film itself. It might even do the opposite, make it more personal and less formal, and the Empress is clearly herself comfortable with it.
ًwow, time shows every mistakes. the mistakes that made by myself and kill myself. time shows, who am I. did you see, who kill his father? we did. Iranian did.
The film maker is a prime example of what was wrong and is wrong with iran. She is so rude and bitter......the way she presents herself to her Majesty Shahbanou Farah.....disheveled hair, rough clothes, she thinks by presenting herself like that she is showing shahbanu that she is not important to her. The only thing I see is a classless woman trying to feel important by disrespecting others. In the end, in the fundraiser she is walking around barefoot. I m not a classist, or an elitist.....but the filmmaker perfectly demonstrates the type of people who hated the shah and his family. You know why shahbanou is referred to as her Majesty by the people after 40 years? Not because she has money or dresses nice or lives in nice homes, no. Because she didnt have you escorted out the minute she met you with the way you addressed her. I m just so sad that we lost our beautiful country in the guardianship of the Pahlavi Dynasty because of low lifes like you

No, they faced the disenchantment of a misled and misinformed population, during a time of great transition in Iran. I think you'll find that God doesn't involve Himself in worldly politics as much as we might think.

Crying my eyes out. Both for Farah Pahlavi & the film maker. Great film. Good stuff. Farah certainly proves herself to be every centimetre a Queen.

I didnt even know about Farah until now, but after I clicked on the video's icon out of curiosity, I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. Congratulations to both the Queen of Iran and the film maker!
The Empress is both gracious, genuine and down to earth. The Shah got her summed up when he told her he married her because she is not pretencious.
What a wonderful film!! Two people from different walks of life getting to know each other and discovering their love and passion for their motherland they can't wait to go back to. Both very genuine and lovely individuals.

loving lady.
As usual it’s so lovely to see her majesty, Empress Farah but the film maker seem to have forgotten that she is speaking to the Queen, I find her rude by the way she talks to her or ask questions.
What happened? There was another version of this documentary on CZcams in English with subtitles only when Her Imperial Majesty and the film-maker were speaking with each other in Farsi!! Can't seem to find that version now.
You can just turn on subtitles in the settings. I just did it
What language is that spoken? I was expecting Farsi
That woman IS quite a woman. I watched the other film entitled, "Tehran to Cairo, " and it was quite a revelation. I shouldn't have been surprised by the negative American news coverage of her husband at the time. The left is even worse today with its lies and distortions of history.

Don't you dare disgrace our Queen. She's not ugly! Respect to her!
Your message - and your comment about the British Queen - is ugly and reveals you as an ugly character. The Empress would be ashamed of you.
I wish there was English subtitles..
This film is not available on Netflix, but hopefully to the joy of viewers, I have now subtitled it into English.
LadyRohan where can I find this with english subtitles?
Kay Sugliano You can see the subtitles by playing the movie.
They're at the bottom of the screen.
LadyRohan they are in danish...i need english
Kay Sugliano The film is subtitled in Norwegian, not Danish, and English. You can see both sets of subtitles at the bottom of the screen. The English text is smaller than the Norwegian one, as per youtube-standard.
Enjoy!
So glad ikept watching this film she is truly a royal. So sad but very touching. I have always disliked everything about Iran but there is good that comes out of there.
"We would do a disservice to Khomeini to consider him simply as a symbol of segregated education and an opponent to women's rights," said the then-head of the State Department Intelligence Bureau, Philip Stoddard."
where r the english subtitles
Mish Maoul At the bottom of the screen when the film plays and someone is talking.
The first Shia Imam, Ali bin Abutaleb cousin and son in law of Mohammad bin Abdulah in his book has preached and advised his follower, Muslim men not to trust their wives or women since they are born with under-developed brain.
I was shocked when I first learned about Ali's statement, perhaps because his wife was the daughter of the messenger, Fatemeh Zahra.
But the events in 1979 in Iran proved to me that Ali's statement about Muslim women is absolute and accurate. For example Shirin Ebadi the Nobel prize winner, Farah Diba the wife of late Mohammad Reza Shah of Iran, Simin Daneshvar the wife of a Shia kleric, Shokouh Mirzvadegi and Simin Behbahani just to name a few to lead women by millions in Tehran's streets to shout "Down with the Shah, viva Khomeini"
No English sub!
You find English subtitles at the bottom of the screen, where subtitles usually are.
Thats Ashamed Nahid!!But I enjoyed ur film.specialy Becouse you were not rude to My Queen.Is realy sad that you fell into that communist trap.What you did not know that Shah did many good things that you did not know.I encourage you to look at the base for communist regimes carefully.Just like liberals here in USA they promise lots of thing that sounds so grand and specialy to young minds and poor.But they want poor to be poor and youngs to brain wash.I comand you for making this film.And Im sooo proud of my Queen to let you do so.She could of refused.Thats what you learned from her.Also one other thing the people arround Shah were not his friends.They did not want people to like him and they did not report the truth about the anguished people felt.I think they thought they will not have their cushion job they had if they do so.Thats why Queen made special surprized visits.She helped many but the Soviets got to you and ones like you sooner.

This channel is, like all other private youtube channels, managed, and spam, repeated posts with the same content, propaganda or anything else deemed inappropriate is removed.
There are multiple channels where abuse of the Royal Family, the Shah or the previous governance of Iran is welcomed, and I suggest you avail yourself of one of those to share your views. This however, is not the place to do so.
Further infringements will lead to a ban on your attempted 'contributions', and no further warnings is given.
My comments fall in the realm of criticism, not abuse.

so the Princess is Christian or Muslim? just asking..
Alter Ego The Empress known as Shahbanou (meaning roughly "the Lady of the King" ) is a Shia (which is a branch of Islam) Muslim like the majority of Iranians.
You mean Princess Leila, the daughter? Her tomb would answer your question.
As a chinese who is still missing ROC, I felt very sad while whatching this film. Kill young people and then ask their parrents for bullet cost, same stories happened in Mao`s reigin. ROC goverment is bad, perhaps very bad during his time. So people belived all utopia lies spoken by CCP. They promised the chinese of feedom and democracy. They shown everyone a great vision that after we follow them to get rid of the west imperialism (Especially US, CCP claimed the ROC goverment is a puppet of US. But meanwhile ROC had been economic sancted by US for a whole year since 1946, the time ROC government started to quell commy`s insurgent.), every person can live wealthily. Then a familiar horrible tragedy happend in my homeland too. Russian Empire executed 191 political prisoner during 1825 to 1905. But after the October Revolution, Bolsheviks excuted over 100000 people in first month. Russia, China, Korea, Vietnam, Iran...People just made same mistakes again and again.
The worst thing about this documentary if the narration and the script
that only a naive filmmaker can use dealing with a former queen. People
should always be considerate of their language and expressions when
dealing with any celebrities. The only observation I had was that the
filmmaker was evolved to a better character in term of her dressing and
understanding of the occasions by the time the documentary is done. You
see how the documentary starts with a messed up bedroom and ends up to
a tidy room. That's the effect that the former Queen had on her without
intention. There are better documentaries which are available about Queen Farah Pahlavi and the best is reading the book written by her.
Ramin Abdollahi As with any documentary made by individual and independent filmmakers, this one is also heavily influenced by the choices and opinions of the filmmaker herself. I would agree that some of the language used for narration and dialogue with Her Imperial Majesty is unimpressive, but I don't think it detracts from the film itself. It might even do the opposite, make it more personal and less formal, and the Empress is clearly herself comfortable with it.
ًwow, time shows every mistakes. the mistakes that made by myself and kill myself. time shows, who am I. did you see, who kill his father? we did. Iranian did.
this film maker make a big lie of iran and queen . empress Farah is stunning
I like her too.
The film maker is a prime example of what was wrong and is wrong with iran. She is so rude and bitter......the way she presents herself to her Majesty Shahbanou Farah.....disheveled hair, rough clothes, she thinks by presenting herself like that she is showing shahbanu that she is not important to her. The only thing I see is a classless woman trying to feel important by disrespecting others. In the end, in the fundraiser she is walking around barefoot. I m not a classist, or an elitist.....but the filmmaker perfectly demonstrates the type of people who hated the shah and his family. You know why shahbanou is referred to as her Majesty by the people after 40 years? Not because she has money or dresses nice or lives in nice homes, no. Because she didnt have you escorted out the minute she met you with the way you addressed her. I m just so sad that we lost our beautiful country in the guardianship of the Pahlavi Dynasty because of low lifes like you
Ok...Both women kinda grew on me🤷🏽♀️. I will like to meet "Her Mergesty."

Y tax & democracy ~ y Muslims pay tax in USA.
They abused the people and faced the wrath of God.
No, they faced the disenchantment of a misled and misinformed population, during a time of great transition in Iran. I think you'll find that God doesn't involve Himself in worldly politics as much as we might think.
