Thank you so much for uploading this! I don't speak Persian but the Iranian culture and history is fascinating to me, I love Forugh Farrokhzad's work and this is a masterpiece. I can't believe how unknown this is in the west. May Forugh Farrokhzad's soul be happy, she is a gift to this world.

What a masterpiece. The powerful of these images must be shown to those who want to become filmmakers.

This is a shocking g reality that is tucked away in most cultures. Thank you for making this films. These children and adults have so much sadness and pain in their bodies but more so probably from us who shun them for what is no fault of their. God show mercy and help them.

Thank you so much for uploading such a masterpiece. I'm short of words, there is so much to learn from it. There is poetry, love, pain, happiness and finally hope. There is definition of beauty and ugliness given by those who see things differently. Amazing work.

watch it again

[@mariyam9861]

it's about a leper colony, a group of people isolated from others because they have a contagious disease of leprosy. only the doctors in leprosy clinics interact wit them, helping them to heal and have physical therapy from common symptoms of leprosy, like stiff, curled fingers. the film is meant otshow how even as they suffer, become permenantly disabled, and are fatally deformed- they find joy, community, and purpose in their lives. They take care of their families, they particpate in religious prayers and traditions, they play games, they have parties, the woman in one scene even puts on kohl. between the scenes of these people, it's interspersed with poetry in the traditional Persian style, where it makes abstract illusions to nature and addresses God. Basically, the documentary is showing that even though they live with such a dangerous and disabling disease, they create meaning in their lives.
