Backstitch is a short documentary exploring one woman's journey from learning to sew as a young girl in Iran to building a new life in Canada through tailoring. Through memories of migration, family, and the quiet artistry of working with fabric by hand, the documentary reflects on resilience and the skills passed between generations. Like the sewing technique it is named after, Backstitch moves backward and forward through time, tracing how she stitched together a livelihood, a home, and a lasting legacy for her family.
