Roya, an Iranian teacher imprisoned in Tehran’s Evin Prison for her political beliefs, is faced with a choice: make a forced televised confession or remain confined to her threesquare-metre cell. As past and present slip out of sequence and exchange places, she moves between inner landscapes and lived experience, revealing how isolation can reshape perception, identity, and the fragile possibility of resistance.

A clandestine film shot in Iran, Roya takes us inside a 3m² cell where the struggle for resistance plays out in silence.
