Amazing Iran & Isfahan

For the Iranian Turkmen a wedding is one of most important social events in their culture and is still celebrated according to old nomadic tradition. The Turkmen Steppe, the country of a thousand mountains, is a tribute to the hidden treasure that is Iran. Home to a proud nation with a majestic history, we show the freedom of a nomadic life, encounter the wild nature of the people and discover old traditions like the Turkmen wedding. Breathtaking sceneries create a mysticism that transports viewers into the realm of divinity while exposing a world caught between tradition and modernity - nomadism and sedentarism.

Take a look at this natural beauty. Isfahan – the Florence of Persia, the blue pearl of Iran. The city in the heart of Iran is the most charismatic city in the country and often uttered in the same breath as Bagdad, Constantinople or Cairo. The former capital of the Persian Safavid Empire has long since lost the status of cosmopolitan city, but it still radiates a cosmopolitan charm of which the inhabitants are extremely proud. With its Iranian and Persian national consciousness, Isfahan emits a form of comeliness that attracts people near and far. Following the 30-year-old carpet dealer Shanty as he tries to establish a business for himself and his fiancée Nina, we discover the soul of the city with mesmeric shots, intimate portraits and true to life portrayals of daily life.
