/*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.
