Table of ContentsReviewsA mystic poet of the hidden sights of our souls, Sohrab Shahid Saless was the filmmakers' filmmaker. He achieved an almost cultic character in his homeland and his two Iranian films formed the DNA of Iranian New Wave before the Iranian Revolution of 1977-9 catapulted him into Europe and then the US where he died lonely and forlorn. Azadeh Fatehrad has given the world of cinema a priceless gift by editing a much overdue volume celebrating both phases of Shahid Saless's Iranian and foreign filmmaking careers: in one he mapped the solitude of our souls, and in the other the exilic permanence of our very existence.--Hamid Dabashi, author of Close Up: Iranian Cinema, Past, Present, Future Author InformationAzadeh Fatehrad is a Researcher at the Visual and Material Culture Research Centre, Kingston University. Fatehrad has conducted diverse projects across Europe and the Middle East, including at the International Institute of Social History (IISH), Amsterdam and AFDI Archiv für Forschung und Dokumentation Iran Berlin eV, Berlin.
