A Film by: Hesam Dehghani

     

 

   

 

Tagline: Feel The Art.

Synopsis: The film goes on a picturesque journey across Iran and searches for people who are using their five senses for creating art.

From a small village in the very northern part of Iran to a southern island, the film takes us to seven different cities and shows the unique use of each human sense to creating “things”, that are beyond our basic needs.

This short documentary is divided into five segments: Smell, Taste, Sound, Touch and Sight; and depicts the art blended with culture, religion, beliefs and traditions of Iranian people.
