IN THE NAME OF GOD
Synopsis
In the beginning of the 12th Century, Jerusalem is occupied by french
crusaders. It's a time of crimes, horrors and brutalities. French conqueror
King Baudouin, is left with no news from his friend Joseph, a priest sent by
him a few years ago, to Persia, in a diplomatic mission.
It's now time for father Robin and 3 other priests to go and look for him.
Their long journey through Persia will take them to the fortress of Hassan
Sabbah, the dreadful leader of Alamut, where Joseph is kept in prison.
A Middle-Age thriller in Ancient Persia where nobody is the one the other
could think he would be.
IN THE NAME OF GOD

synopsis
After the re-election of Iranian President Mohammad Khatami a French
television crew comes to film a report in Tehran on the reformists' attempts
to introduce democracy in the country.
For Reza, the Iranian filmmaker who has been in exile for fifteen years, this
report is an opportunity to change the negative view the West has of his
native country.
For Goldmund, the French presenter, the most important thing is to produce an
accurate report of what is actually going on and to produce a faithful
portrait of the post-islamic revolutionary period.
In the meantime, they go in search of Esfandiar, a former student at the
Sorbonne University who returned to his country to teach French literature at
tehran University. he is also a cabaret singer and theatre producer who
dreams of the changes he will probably never see because he is dying from
cancer.
During these seven days the reality the crew has to face up goes far beyond
anything they had imagined.
On the day of their departure they are all greatly affected and Goldmund has
to leave his friend Esfandiar who will never witness Tehran's bright future.
7 DAYS IN TEHRAN
has been selected in more than 10 International Film Festival this year and
wan the "BRONZE ROSA CAMUNA" in Bergamo (Italy). The film is definitely
censored (forbidden) in Iran.
We look forward to speaking and meeting with you at the market!
