About the author

Reporter & filmmaker

Sahar is a British-Iranian award-winning Broadcast journalist and multimedia documentary filmmaker. She has presented and produced documentaries and reported on current affairs in some of the most remote and hostile environments for international broadcasters including the BBC, Channel 4, ITV, Vice Sky and a number of other international broadcasters. Sahar fled Iran at 12 years old and after years of living in refugee camps across Europe, she eventually arrived in the UK. The adversity faced during these years has given Sahar an insight into marginalised communities and allows her to report from a unique perspective rarely seen in mainstream media.
