Tags:

On a bus from Tehran to Esfahan I saw an Iranian movie. It did have everything: leading actor was Robert de Niro look-alike, there was life-long friendship and betrayal, prison and return from it, tragic love, motorcycles, cock fighting, happyend and murder and tragic end. And like all movies of obscure cinemas (Iranian, Indian…) it was visually stunning.

Discussion posts should relate to the article topic. If the discussion becomes a pointless banter of „Wooooow! :)))))“, or „Fuck you! :((((“ it will be mercilessly censored ;P

Walking around Valiasr square, you can see what women dare to wear in Iran. I saw women wearing colourful manteaux with huge buttons and headscarf to match and a girl in a shiny black tight fitting shirt. More

Tea and Loafing In Esfahan

Esfahan must be the best place for just hanging out in Iran. There is even a teahouse with view of the main square. More
