De film laat zien hoe de jonge musici westerse muziek uitvoeren en beleven. Zo ontstaat een ander beeld van de Iraanse samenleving dan we gewoonlijk zien krijgen. SYNOPSIS “De muziek wordt in de islamitische staat Iran als een onbelangrijke kunst ervaren. Het gesproken woord wordt door de Perzen als veel belangrijker gezien. De poëzie van een dichter als Hafez is voor hen het hoogst haalbare in de kunst. Als ze muziek horen dan vragen ze zich altijd eerst af wat er mee gezegd wordt. De poëzie van de abstracte klank wordt door hen niet begrepen. De Perzen kunnen gewoon niet luisteren en daar wil ik iets aan doen.” zegt de Perzische dirigent en componist Nader Mashayekhi. In de nieuwe film van Frank Scheffer volgt de Nederlandse regisseur de Iraanse componist Nader Mashayekhi terug naar Teheran, terwijl deze worstelt met het oprichten van zijn Tehran Philharmonic Orchestra. Mashayekhi had eerder de muziek van moderne componisten zoals John Cage en een voorstelling van de Johannes Passion van Bach naar Iran gebracht. Bijna onvoorstelbare projecten ten tijde van het officieel conservatieve en radicale culturele klimaat in het land. De Iranese componist heeft 28 jaar in Wenen gewoond en gewerkt en is op uitnodiging van Iraanse musici naar zijn vaderland teruggekeerd. Uit Scheffer’s film spreekt meer een cultureel filosofische dan een politieke benadering. De film laat een ander beeld zien van het leven in Iran door te kijken naar jonge Iraanse musici en de wijze waarop zij het spelen van eigentijdse westerse muziek beschouwen en beleven en wat dit voor hen betekent. Door het samenvoegen van beelden met de ritmes van de compositie ontstaat er een betoverende, spirituele en melancholieke reis, niet alleen over de vraag van het bestaan van een artiest in het huidige Iran… FILMOGRAFIE FRANK SCHEFFER REGISSEUR FILMOGRAFIE ALS REGISSEUR/PRODUCER ZOETROPE PEOPLE 1982, 60 min.
