abstract noteTahirih Qurratu'l-'Ayn, a revolutionary figure in 19th-century Persian history, remains a symbol of women's empowerment and religious reform. Despite her significant influence, her portrayal in mainstream media has been limited. This research delves into the documentary film Dust-Flower-Flame directed by Shabnam Tolouei, which offers a unique perspective on Táhirih's life and legacy. Tolouei's film provides a nuanced exploration of Táhirih's multifaceted identity as a religious thinker, poet, and women's rights advocate. Through archival materials, interviews, and reenactments, Tolouei constructs a compelling subjective narrative. Exploring the intersection of past and present, this research examines the cinematic strategies employed in Dust-Flower-Flame in order to offer insights into the director's construction of Táhirih and the challenges and controversies surrounding her depiction.
