Tehran Has No More Pomegranates (2006). Directed by Massoud Bakhshi, made over the span of five years, the film is a comic and sarcastic narrative about Tehran's transformation from a small village into a huge modern megalopolis. Using an energetic mix of never-before-seen archival footage from the past 120 years, modern images of Tehran, and sometimes asynchronous music and sound, the aesthetic and cultural values of old and new Tehran are brought to life. In the process, director and crew embark on a self-discovery, realizing that while they belong to a drastically transformed Tehran, being a "Tehrani" is a timeless state of mind.
The film has received many critical acclaims, festival nominations and awards, including; Official Selection HOTDOCS, IDFA, Full Frame, Rotterdam Film Festivals; Winner, Best Director, 25th International Fajr Film Festival, Winner, Best Director, 11th House of Cinema Film Festival, Winner, AVINI Prize, Best Documentary of the year 2007 and Winner, Audience Award, CINEMA VERITE International Documentary Film Festival. 67 min.

| Shockwave Flash and Firefox |
http://www.flickr.com/photos/peterfortuna/ / CC BY 2.0 After a few annoying Firefox crashes I figured out that Shockwave Flash was freaking out on me. How I Figured It OutI figured out it was Shockwave Flash plugin by visiting seveal gaming sites and watching the cursor spin and spin. I had to Force quit the browser on my 10.6 by going to Mac->Force Quit->Firefox. I restarted Firefox and disabled all the add-ons by Firefox->Tools-Add-Ons. Went back to a gaming site. The site asked me to install Flash. I then re-enabled Shockwave Flash 10.1.x and watch the browser crash. |
