Makhmalbaf's film involvement began early in her life.

By age three, she had already attended the Cannes Film Festival.

Her own work gained attention by age eight when the Locarno Film Festival screened her first short film titled The Day My Aunt Was Ill.

Makhmalbaf expressed interest in being a painter, but did not like the "loneliness" that she described in the art form.

She then was drawn to filmmaking, and she found the on-set experience compelling.

In an interview, Makhmalbaf explained that hearing the words "lights, camera, action" was exciting and had a "strange power".

At the age of eight, Makhmalbaf decided she did not want to continue attending school.

Makhmalbaf's debut documentary was released in 2003 and was entitled Joy of Madness.

The film was about the making of her sister Samira's film At Five in the Afternoon.

Makhmalbaf was able to take advantage of being only 13 to amass much candid digital footage when Samira was trying to persuade Afghan people to take part in her film.

She was described as being able to blend in and remain overlooked as she shot her film among the production.

She was able to capture so much on film because her age caused people to not to hide from her since they did not take her seriously.

When Joy of Madness(2003) premiered at the Venice Film Festival, Makhmalbaf was too young to attend her own screening under Italian law.

Joy of Madness was also screened at the Cannes Film Festival, where Makhmalbaf beat the record of the youngest person to have a film screened in the festival.

2009

Her second feature, Green Days premiered at the 2009 Toronto International Film Festival.
