Shahid

شهید

Documentary

Synopsis

Shahid is a political drama and a desperate comedy at the same time. It features historical heroes, contemporary criminals, and modern women having to deal with both. SHAHID is a personal film, questioning all kinds of radical ideologies – while not taking itself all too seriously either.
