Where God Is Not
Là où Dieu n'est pas
Là où Dieu n'est pas
Taghi, Homa and Mazyar were arrested and interrogated by the Iranian regime. All three, through their actions and with their bodies as proof, exemplify the essence of what it means to resist and to be defeated. Is there any hope that the torturer will one day rekindle his conscience? Where God Is Not is a film of testimonies from those who have been scarred by the Iranian regime. It seeks to understand the workings of the totalitarian system in its most repressive aspects, i.e. imprisonment and torture, using the huis-clos and reconstitution as cinematographic formats.
Warning: This film includes scenes that may shock (re-enactments of torture scenes).
