Iran - Zwei Freunde. Zwei Kulturen. Eine gemeinsame Reise.

In the organizer's words:

Two friends, both wanderlust-infected and enthusiastic photographers, set off on a trip to Iran. But: one flies to the "rogue state" from the German media coverage, the other to the glorified country of his happy childhood "with the most delicious sweets in the world". Along the way, they encounter the torn nature of young Iranians between everyday adversity and their enduring love for the culture and history of their homeland. Thanks to his Persian roots, Mehran knows how to penetrate the background and explain the incomprehensible, while Thorge, the organic German with the unveiled newcomer's gaze, doesn't want to hide the obvious. But despite the contrasting perspectives of the two travel photographers, they both have no doubt about the warmth and sincere hospitality of the people. And: without question, Iran is a country worth seeing and experiencing - and has the most delicious sweets in the world! A unique and award-winning travel reportage, both photographically and narratively.
