The recession is what inspired me to write the film, she says.
I was in my 20s when it happened.
I felt like the recession took all of that away.
I saw friends lose jobs.
Some lose their home.
And I thought the idea of having all this potential and then its taken away was interesting.
What do you do with that?
What she did was make a film about a man floundering in his job.
Heading to Netflix was more than Saman ever thought possible.
Im scared and excited, she says.
I never thought it would have this big of an audience.
