Halfway between a documentary and a film-essay, Landscape suspended tracks the story of an “interrogation” through the footages from Shahoo mountain, a mountain in Kurdistan of Iran which hosts nomadic Kurdish tribe called Havar Nishins and Kurdish guerrillas. Since 2007, Iran has been erecting military bases at the Shaho Mountain. As a result, the mountain has become a battleground that has severely impacted the lives of the Hawar Neshins. “Landscape Suspended” explores how the landscape of Shahoo from its most picturesque to its most banal aspects, is an expression of the dominant political power.
