Iran, 2024, 82 min, Farahnaz Sharifi, Farsi<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>

+ Short film<\/span>
The House is Black<\/strong> <\/span>
Iran, 1963, 20 min, Forugh Farrokhzad, Farsi
Original version with english subtitles <\/em><\/span><\/p>

Iranian cinema has long echoed with defiance. In a country where filmmaking is often an act of subversion, directors have learned to create under censorship, surveillance, and the threat of imprisonment. From Jafar Panahi smuggling <\/span>This is Not a Film<\/span><\/strong> out on a USB hidden in a cake, to anonymous videos shared during protests, the act of image-making in Iran is always more than representation, it is resistance.<\/span><\/span><\/p>

The House is Black<\/span><\/strong> and <\/span>My Stolen Planet<\/span><\/strong> emerge from this legacy. Forugh Farrokhzad\u2019s <\/span>The House is Black <\/span><\/strong>is a pioneering work of Iranian feminist cinema, set in a leprosy colony. Through lyrical narration and stark visuals, she gives voice to those cast out by society creating a radical act of empathy and rupture.<\/span><\/span><\/p>

Farahnaz Sharifi\u2019s <\/span>My Stolen Planet<\/strong>, <\/span>made six decades later, continues this feminist resistance. Weaving Super 8 home movies, personal archives, and quiet gestures of everyday life, the film becomes a counter-history to the Islamic Republic. It bears witness to Iran\u2019s current uprisings, especially the women-led Jin, Jiyan, Azadi movement.<\/span><\/span><\/p>

Together, these films span generations of women\u2019s resistance in Iran. They don\u2019t shout; they remember, mourn, and dream. They are not simply films, but acts of witness \u2013 alive, defiant, and unforgotten.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Das iranische Kino tr\u00e4gt seit Langem den Geist des Widerstands in sich. In einem Land, in dem das Filmemachen selbst ein subversiver Akt sein kann, haben Regisseur*innen gelernt, unter Zensur, \u00dcberwachung und der Drohung von Haft kraftvolle Werke zu schaffen. Von Jafar Panahi, der This is Not a Film<\/strong> in einem Kuchen au\u00dfer Haus schmuggelte, bis zu anonym geteilten Videos von Protesten \u2013 das Erzeugen von Bildern im Iran ist stets mehr als blo\u00dfe Darstellung, es ist ein Akt des Widerstands.<\/span><\/p><\/div>

Aus diesem Erbe entstehen The House is Black und My Stolen Planet. Forugh Farrokhzads The House is Black<\/strong> gilt als bahnbrechendes Werk feministischen iranischen Kinos. In einer Leprakolonie gedreht, verleiht der Film jenen eine Stimme, die aus dem gesellschaftlichen Ged\u00e4chtnis gel\u00f6scht wurden \u2013 durch poetische Sprache und eindringliche Bilder als radikaler Akt der Empathie und des Aufbegehrens.<\/span><\/p><\/div>

Farahnaz Sharifis My Stolen Planet<\/strong>, sechs Jahrzehnte sp\u00e4ter entstanden, f\u00fchrt diese feministische Linie fort. Aus Super-8-Filmen, privaten Archiven und Alltagsgesten entsteht ein Gegen-Ged\u00e4chtnis zur offiziellen Geschichtsschreibung. Der Film zeugt von aktuellen Aufst\u00e4nden im Iran, insbesondere der von Frauen gef\u00fchrten Jin-, Jiyan,- und Azadi-Bewegung.<\/span><\/p><\/div>

Diese Filme durchziehen Generationen weiblichen Widerstands im Iran \u2013 leise, poetisch, unvergessen. Sie sind keine blo\u00dfen Filme, sondern lebendige Zeugnisse des Widerstands.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
