Razeh-del
The first newspaper for and by women in Iran, Zan had a brief but eventful existence from July 1998 to April 1999. In Razeh-del, Maryam Tafakory tells the story of two female students who decided to send the newspaper a letter hoping to be published. True to the cinematic language she has come to be associated with, the filmmaker narrates this story in writing, superimposing text over numerous archive images of Iranian films. The film is aged; the digital images looking worn. The many stylistic devices that accompany and alter these images that are already weakened by time remind us of their precariousness, their significance, and the efforts and risks behind their existence and preservation.
