Director Sepideh Farsi:?€œTehran is full of contradictions. A combination of religion and laicism, tradition and modernity, poverty and prosperity, high tech and retro urbanity?€??€? She shot her film entirely with a mobile phone, allowing her relative freedom without being noticed, keeping the distance to her interviewees marginal and allowing for spontaneity. Like filming a popular ?€“ though illegal ?€“ Iranian rap group. A collage of everyday Iranian life, caught between religious doctrine and excessive festivities.
