About A Short Story of Several Thousand Years
From the very beginning of art history, artists have looked beyond the material and natural world in creating their works. This film explores the deep and essential relationship between the arts and religious rituals across the centuries.
Directed by Khosrow Sinai, A Short Story of Several Thousand Years leans on a strong ensemble — Farrokh Nemati — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 1995.
