As the director somewhat correctly pointed out in an interview, “… it’s not based on a real story. It was based on a lot of stories. …”. One of these stories is what happened in Iran after the death of a woman. This true story had two main differences or distinctions compared to Athena:
(1) the woman in Iran died due to natural causes, so instead of having killed someone like Idir, terrorists used the circumstances of the death to cause media propaganda and mislead some very few youngsters against the government and the police like they did with the fake camera film in the movie.
(2) Iran’s people as a whole withstood strongly against the lies produced by the terrorists (the terrorists had special access to some media outlets both over the web and on worldwide satellite TV). Even those very few misled youngsters revisited their assumptions after an ISIS member shot and killed multiple innocent women and children after which he himself was killed.
All in all, I think the director was being humble or conservative during his answers regarding the story, as this kind of thing happens every other moment of our lives nowadays. One of the most well-known similar stories is what happened with Facebook and Cambridge Analytica during the 2016 election around which many documentaries and cinematic features have been created to day.
