Bahareh Yaraghi acts out | October 7, 2015

When an Iranian born actress meets an Israeli photographer they talk about Rice. The Persian style of cooking rice which is simply sublime. Give people a couple of thousand years and they'll figure it out. Bahareh talks of a strong pull to her Iranian roots, present and past. Culture. Family. Politics. How it coincides with being Canadian. It's a rich and enriching experience for a young girl who came to Canada at the age of 8. There is just enough tension between those intertwined entities to make reality a bit denser and more varied. The freedom to practice diverse cultures is the icing on the Canada cake. Bahareh is also passionate about her chosen profession, theatre acting. it's not just the trade that keeps her enthralled. It's also the community she loves so much.
