Cast Aside The Clouds Director/Producer Mary Darling & Shahin Sobhani - INSPIRED with Sophia Zamani

Hi, and welcome to INSPIRED, a podcast where spirituality meets culture. I’m your host Sophia Zamani, and in each episode, I sit down with guests to talk about faith and the lessons that shape how we live and show up in the world. 

In this episode I’m joined by Writer/Director Mary Darling, and Producer Shahin Sobhani to talk about ‘Cast Aside The Clouds’ (castasidetheclouds.com), a new feature film which follows the love story of a young Baha’i woman, Layla, and a Muslim doctor named Sasan, as they navigate the complexities of love and faith in Iran–a country divided by religious prejudice.

I hope you enjoy the conversation!
