Joonam follows filmmaker Sierra Urich, as she embarks on an odyssey-esque summer vacation with her mother Mitra, and grandmother Behjat, hoping to learn about their lives in Iran. Between road trips to the beach, and fireside storytelling, the three women begin to retrace the past. But quickly, the long days spent together prove to be much more challenging than Sierra expected, and it seems that beneath their comical family antics something bigger is brewing.

Joonam is a participant of the 2022 (Egg)celerator Lab.
