To the people asking me : "Why the fuck do you want to go to Iran ?", i'd like to show them this video.
Once again, i took a 3 weeks trip in the Middle East, with my video bag, filled with a few extra shirts, with one thought in mind: make people want to travel.
The narration explains the whole thing : "Curves are everywhere in Eastern culture: our writing, our architecture, our instruments, the way we dance ; even the tone of our language is curved. The West was built on angles. The East was built on curves."
Listen with headphones!
Bonus videos :
Cool kids of Tehran: Tehran is full of artists, expressing their art even if the government don't want them to do so. This is a portrait of two of them: youtu.be/PpUW2Rezei8
Sacred Geometry: It's hard to describe how tiny you feel when you stand under a dome of an iranian mosque. Even atheists feel that those particular places are built with some kind of spiritual cement. Here's an experimental short about it: youtu.be/RTI0aI3Ne_Q
