Tehran Is the Capital of Iran

Summary

In the documentary Tehran Is the Capital of Iran Kamran Shirdel juxtaposes the real life of marginalized city residents with the positively intoned dictation of a professor reading in front of her students. The official ideology was called into question by opposing class lectures and scenes of vagrants, beggars, street vendors, manual workers and people selling their own blood. The film was banned and confiscated during editing, and in 1980 overhauled after being found in the archives of the Ministry of Arts and Culture.
