When the Shah-era Ministry of Culture asked Ebrahim Golestan (Brick and Mirror) for a documentary on Iran’s crown jewels, they didn’t expect an acidic indictment of the regime’s politics. Previously released only in a diluted version, this vanguard masterpiece can now be seen for the first time in its unexpurgated original version. Description courtesy of the International Film Festival Rotterdam.
