Synopsis:
Directed by Massoud Bakhshi, made over
the span of five years, TEHRAN HAS NO MORE POMEGRANATES is a comic and
sarcastic narrative about Tehran's transformation from a small village
into a huge modern megalopolis. Using an energetic mix of
never-before-seen archival footage from the past 120 years, modern images
of Tehran, and sometimes asynchronous music and sound, the aesthetic and
cultural values of old and new Tehran are brought to life. In the process,
director and crew embark on a self-discovery, realizing that while they
belong to a drastically transformed Tehran, being a "Tehrani"
is a timeless state of mind.
