Narges Mohebbi was born in 1995 in Iran, Tehran. She became interested in cinema as a story teller in her twenties when she noticed her life as a refugee traveler played an important role in enhancing her experiences in her personal life and artistic life which then rooted something profound in her soul that until this day it is the only thing that keeps her growing and going. The love and appreciation for Cinema navigated her to write, direct, and produce a short film called “Hold your head up and say no”, in 2015 which got her accepted at the Film Art Program of Langara Collage. Narges’s passion, motivation and dedication got her starting in the LCFA as a director. As school assignment she wrote, directed, shot, edited and analytically presented 4 short films in class, each within one-week of deadlines. Narges Mohebbi successfully collaborated with the writers, directors and actors of LCFA to produce and direct her short film called “Datezone”, which then was screened at the Pacific Cinematheque theatre of Vancouver BC, Canada in Spring 2016. During her school year at the LCFA, she had her hands on all the technical aspects of filmmaking. Narges took part in three film productions as AD, Key Grip, Costume and wardrobe supervisor, as well as producing and directing her own short film known as "Connect" by Kali Nelson. Narges completed her final term of the Langara College Film Arts Directing program and on the last days before the end of the program she wrote, produced, and directed a one minute call to action film for the VIFF refugee crisis contest.
