Soundtrack of the Revolution cover <https://t.e2ma.net/click/4cnrs/khtzfs/sjw1jj>

/*Soundtrack of the Revolution <https://t.e2ma.net/click/4cnrs/khtzfs/8bx1jj>*/ offers a striking account of Iranian culture, politics, and social change to provide an alternative history of the Islamic Republic. Drawing on over five years of research in Iran, including during the 2009 protests, Nahid Siamdoust closely follows the work of four musicians, each with markedly different political views and relations with the Iranian government. She sheds light on issues at the heart of debates in Iran—about its future and identity, changing notions of religious belief, and the quest for political freedom.
