Present in the Past: A Narrative

An inspiring narrative of overcoming adversity and sheer determination to survive and advance humanity.

"Present in the Past" is a glimpse into the moments in the life of Touran Mirhadi , renowned educator and founder of Children Encyclopedia Project in Iran, and much more. How does she overcome adversities, one after another and rise up to be even greater? Both heartbreaking and triumphant, it is a story of survival, the interaction of a mother with breath of experience and a naïve son, but above all, it is a testament to the power of positivity.

It is the application of a phrase often repeated by Touran Mirhadi:

"Turn great sorrows into big projects"

"Present in the Past" offers a powerful message of hope to anyone who believe they have reached their limits, the end. There is so much still possible.
