The resulting footage was eventually brought out of the country and processed and finished in Berlin-Babelsberg.  Paradise« celebrated its ­premiere in 2015 in competition at Locarno Film Festival and was subsequently awarded various ­prizes. The book reveals a fascinating view of how the film crew dealt creatively with the massive ­restrictions on filming in Iran. It breaks down, like a ­manual, the logistical, strategic, and technical ­efforts underlying the images and scenes in ­ Paradise« that the team applied to circumvent the plethora of restrictions. Created as a docu­mentary feature film,  Paradise« presents the viewer with seemingly mundane scenes of life. ­However, to create the impression of a realistic ­representation of everyday life meant that very ­complicated precautions had to be taken. Iranian censorship, especially of feature films, scrupulously regulates everything that could somehow be ­understood as critique, such as the (absolutely ­necessary) concealment of female characters; and to show adolescent girls dancing to pop music in a school bus or during school breaks, is completely unimaginable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExhibition: \u003cbr\u003e Hidden \/ Secret - Strategien des Verborgenen \u003cbr\u003e Villa Merkel Galerien der Stadt Esslingen am Neckar, 25\/3-3\/6\/2018\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alec Barth,Reyhan Bokaie\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3864422485\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783864422485\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Snoeck Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/11\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.01lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.90w x 0.60d","brand":"Alec Barth","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48442822361343,"sku":"9783864422485","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7201551c-1adc-40f3-840d-c7698c940bc6.jpg?v=1777200006","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/paradise-handbook-alec-barth-9783864422485","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
