Tehran, A Conceptual Art poster

Released in 2012, Tehran, A Conceptual Art is a documentary film directed by Mohammad Reza Aslani, running about 76 minutes. “a documentary about a city” — that tagline sets the tone.

What it’s about. This film is a modern rendition of a long tradition of so-called “symphonies of a metropolis”. The glassy facades of this city’s skyscrapers reflecting the passing by people of its diverse districts, shown in the reflection of distorted mirrors, symbolically depict the Spirit of a metropolis, as if it lives in its own shadows and reflections. This distorted reflection of Tehran comes together with modern verses of a poet who was known as the Poet of Tehran after publishing his illustrious cycle of poems about Tehran in the 60s. As a flâneur, the poet himself saunters around this city -through his voice/poem/memory- reflecting upon the reflections of old/modern monuments, sculptures, statues etc. of this giant metropolis.

Who’s in it. Tehran, A Conceptual Art stars Mohammad Ali Sepanlou.
