Finding Farideh

Farideh was abandoned in a holy shrine in Iran when she was 6 months old. Adopted by a Dutch couple, she was taken to the Netherlands to start a new life, far from the one she was born into. Despite her parent’s disapproval, almost 40 years later Farideh sets off on a personal journey to her motherland in search of her biological parents and in turn discovers more than she could have ever imagined. Finding Farideh is a soul-stirring story that connects West to East and captures what it means to exist between two worlds.
