Director Wojciech Faruga and the author of the script, Magda Fertacz, make a breakneck combination of “A Thousand and One Nights” with the work and biography of the outstanding journalist and reporter Oriana Fallaci. During the Iranian Islamic Revolution of 1979, she visited Tehran for a few days to interview Ayatollah Khomeini. We accompany her during this special time culminating in the night when she feels an immediate threat to her life after daring to expose her hair during a meeting with an orthodox clergyman. And we listen to her stories, because they are the only weapon that Fallaci has – like Scheherazade – in the fight against an oppressive world.
A suggestive, powerful but non-literal production that gets right to the heart of modern times.
