Synopsis
“Into Thin Air” explores the curfew and military violence in Tehran on September 8, 1978, the month of the director’s birth. Using the only known minute-long footage, the film traces the terrified citizens caught in the shootings, juxtaposing it with scenes of people elsewhere and with present-day figures. Through repetition, collage, and the interplay of past and present, the film reflects on memory as an elusive image, showing how the past continues to shape the present.
