Shahr-e Gheseh Screening at Cabinet Space

February 26, 2010, 7pm
Cabinet Space
300 Nevins Street, Brooklyn
FREE; no RSVP necessary

This Friday, Bidoun and Cabinet co-present a screening of the film version of Bijan Mofid s lauded 1967 avant-garde play Shahr-e Gheseh (City of Tales). Set in a mythical city populated by various animals, Shahr-e Gheseh is an allegorical fable in which the fate of a visiting elephant strangely echoes the fate of Iran under the modernity espoused by its rulers in the twentieth century.

Program in Farsi (film has NO SUBTITLES; discussion following also in Farsi)

Ab-Dough-Khiar and other refreshments will be provided
