SAHAR MIRHADI : DAWN OF THE GEEK<br />
Dawn of the Geek is a story of self acceptance, of passion meeting obsession, and of stereotypes dancing in a dazzling Anglo-Iranian<br />
beat. We learn how she dealt with the recurrence of being shunned for Nintendo, left for wrestling and lied to by Walt Disney. Expect<br />
treats and lots of love in this tale of discovery. Sahar Mirhadi is a Geek. It’s not her fault. Everyone can be a Geek.<br />
