As the play ended, he appeared with a green bracelet, a sign of Iranian Green Movement, chanting "Where is my vote?". He did not return to Iran and went to France as a refugee where he started the dance company "Reformances" in . He met and collaborated with Shahrokh Moshkin Ghalam in France. During 2010-2011, he attended Centre National de la Danse.
Ghaffarian is the founder of the "Reformances" company (a portmanteau of the words Reform and Performance).
