The opening of the public screening of the documentary Mother, Love, Separation held yesterday, November 3rd, in the city of Shkodër.
Aldo sullolari director of the 40-minute documentary made a speech after the screening:
Today we are gathered here to share a story, a story that feels the deep pain of mothers who face a pain that many of us cannot imagine. This film, entitled “Mother, Love, Separation”, tells us about the suffering of mothers in Iran, who are separated from their children for years, children who have joined the MEK terrorist organization.
This film is not just a depiction of suffering. It is a call for awareness, a message for all of us, especially for the Albanian public, to support these mothers and their children. Their pain, tears and suffering are evidence of a bitter reality, but our film also shows the power of dedication and conviction to bring back what has been lost.
During the filming in the Persian Gulf, we had the opportunity to experience deep events and emotions, which were skillfully described by our Albanian and Iranian activists. They bring a strong message of unity to the screen, showing that a mother’s love and strength are more powerful than any terrorist ideology.
Our film is a reflection of a sad reality, but also a hope for a brighter future. What we want is to create a feeling of solidarity, for all of us to be on the side of those who are suffering.
Through this project, we want to call for action. It is necessary to listen to the stories of these mothers and understand that each story is a cry for help. We cannot remain silent in the face of this tragedy. This is an opportunity to open a dialogue, to help those who are lost and to bring a light of hope into their lives.
Thank you for being here to support this film and the message it conveys. I hope we can all be inspired by these mothers’ stories and come together for a greater cause.
Thank you!
