Barbara David, a German-Iranian visual artist, decides to become Shirin David — her famous sister, an 80s pop icon. She doesn't just put on a wig; she immerses herself in a world of glamour, stage personas, and the public adulation she once rejected. This 2026 documentary explores the boundaries of identity, sisterhood, and the price of fame through the lens of an artistic experiment. The director observes a transformation that begins as a performance but gradually touches the deepest layers of the self. The camera captures moments of doubt, triumph, and unexpected revelation as Barbara confronts the ghost of an alternative life she could have lived. It's a story about whether one can become another person and what remains of the original self after such a metamorphosis.
