Already shown at the Berlinale film festival 2026 in the Panorama section in February, the film will be released in German cinemas on May 7, 2026. The film crew of "Roya," that is about the traumas endured by a political prisoner in Evin Prison in Tehran, called on audiences at the film’s German premiere to “not forget” the Iranian people. “The existence of the Iranian people today is like that of Roya,” the film’s heroine, “it’s not livable,” director Mahnaz Mohammadi, 51, summed up in an interview with AFP.
