An experimental video about narrations of two journal photos from Iran's Islamic revolution in 1979.
University of Tehran 1981. Two years after the Iranian Revolution. Following Ayatollah Khomeini's order, universities were shut down. A mass purge took place. "Non-Islamic" students and lecturers were expelled. Hundreds of people were injured, killed, and exiled. Since then, all universities in Iran have been strictly Islamic. The purge is called Iran's "cultural revolution". This is a requiem for a revolution.
