00:07This video is brought to you by Dr. J. J. J. J. J. J. J.
00:53I can't actually have any opinions on this photo because it would be dangerous for me,
00:58but I know what I'm feeling, though.
01:20This is Ayatollah Khomeini. He is the supreme leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
01:28My life as a young person growing up in Iran is scarred with the decisions that this man made.
01:38I've lost my own dreams, my career, everything.
01:42You could see him everywhere, on streets, banners, posters.
01:49Like eyes watching you in the school, in shops, in administrations.
01:59Everywhere you go, you can see them.
02:02I can see them.
02:02I can see them.
02:33You'd be afraid to be caught hating the supreme leader.
02:37It's their decision who can stay alive, who should be dead.
02:51People are hoping for a change.
02:53People are hoping for their freedom.
02:56People start to fight against this game.
03:01Because we are suffering. We are suffering.
03:08People are not afraid of this regime anymore.
03:13We are going to overthrow the regime.
03:15Like, how we can fuck the system.
03:22The protesters were shouting that the dictator...
03:25... and the dictator...
03:29...
03:32...
03:32...
03:36...
03:37Kar-Kar-Kirrotha, Kar-Kar-Kirrotha, Kar-Kar-Kirrotha, Kar-Kar-Kirrotha.
03:50Me?
03:53Yeah.
03:53No, okay.
03:55As in...
03:56As in the start of the show?
03:58Yeah.
03:59First take.
04:00Give us your name and what you do yours.
04:03I'm Kion Mer, and I'm a filmmaker, and I'm trying to be a VJ.
04:07Yeah.
04:08When did you leave Iran?
04:10Yesterday.
04:12That seems like a very weird sentence,
04:15but, like, I left Iran yesterday.
04:22Can I tell you a story?
04:25Yeah, of course.
04:28We decided to join the protests,
04:30and it was packed with these angry people.
04:39We blocked the streets.
04:40We, like, made fire to places,
04:42and everything, we were just chanting.
04:45We could smell the pepper spray
04:47and the gas in the air,
04:49and we couldn't breathe.
04:53When the police came,
04:55I ran away into the overpass on top of the street.
05:02And I was watching down, like, on these people,
05:06tell everything and, like, what's happening and all.
05:09And one of the guys that was, like,
05:12leading the whole protest with us,
05:14he just took a knife out of his pocket
05:18and he stabbed this teenager boy next to him.
05:24I even made eye contact with both of them.
05:27Like, I was like, what the fuck is happening?
05:31I saw the whole thing.
05:33I mean, I saw the blood coming out of his body
05:36and everything.
05:38And the guy didn't even bat an eye.
05:40I mean, he was just standing there still.
05:43And then he went off and joined the other policeman.
05:48It was an undercover cop, for sure.
05:53These protests can really be scary.
05:55I mean, like, I wanted to fight for the cause.
05:58I wanted to, like, have a,
05:59have a saying in my own destiny.
06:03And, like, I wanted to, I wanted all of this.
06:05But you had to, like, accept the fact
06:09that you could die at any second.
06:11Look at this.
06:19My name is Rana Rahimpur
06:20and I worked as a journalist
06:22for the BBC's Persian service for 15 years.
06:27Why are there always protests in Iran?
06:30Because the people of Iran are fed up
06:33and they just want change.
06:35But there's elections in Iran.
06:36Can't they just vote for change?
06:38Well, they can vote,
06:40but it's not a democratic election.
06:44What was the first election that you came in?
06:48It was just a few months after I joined
06:50the BBC's Persian service
06:52and it was Iran's presidential election of 2009.
07:03Everything, all the problems that we have today,
07:06it started from 2009, all the problems.
07:26They're already calling it an epic election,
07:29a debate on the future of the country,
07:31conducted on every street corner.
07:33The two men at the center of it all are current president,
07:36Mahmoud Ahmadinejad,
07:37and the pro-reform challenger,
07:39Mir Hossein Mousavi.
07:41Back in 2009,
07:43it was the first times that, like,
07:46I felt being Iranian might be good.
07:50Because, like,
07:52we can actually, like, achieve something in the future.
07:56Iran's presidential race has reached a fever pitch
07:59as the two main candidates made their last public appeals
08:02before Friday's vote.
08:03It was very unusual for people to have so much hope.
08:07Days before the election,
08:09we were receiving footage from Iran
08:11of this sea of people wearing green.
08:15It was the color of Mousavi's campaign.
08:17I'm right in the middle of President Mousavi
08:19in his home neighbourhood.
08:20His supporters are up there.
08:22You can see his photograph there.
08:24And on this side,
08:25Mir Hossein Mousavi,
08:26the opposition candidate,
08:27these are his supporters.
08:29And you see they're really taunting each other.
08:31The presidential election campaign in Iran
08:35has galvanized voters like nothing before.
08:38I remember before the elections,
08:40everyone was so happy
08:42and, like, we were just always excited.
08:46And, like, it was just joyful and hopeful.
08:50Everything was full of hope.
09:06I'm Arash Hijazi.
09:08I was born in Tehran.
09:13In 2009,
09:15there was this momentum being built behind Mousavi.
09:19The green wave behind Mousavi
09:22has gained so much momentum.
09:24So it's this person
09:25who's actually saying the same things
09:27that I'm hoping for
09:29in a sense that
09:31one-step improvement towards democracy,
09:34I'm going to give him a chance.
09:37I said maybe in 12 years,
09:40Iran is going to be a democratic country.
09:42Just this transformation,
09:44if you just continue this transformation,
09:46the end result is inevitably democracy.
09:50And now, voters in Iran
09:52seem to be coming out to the polls
09:53in huge numbers.
09:56I went to the voting area with my mum.
09:58I remember there was this big line
10:00and we were sure about this thing
10:03and we were like,
10:04OK, everybody wants to vote for Mousavi
10:07so, like, it's going to be OK.
10:10We weren't actually even thinking
10:12about anything else that could happen.
10:38The next day, there was this announcement that
10:42Ahmadinejad has won the election.
10:44by a landslide.
10:46I was just in a state of shock.
10:52Today, Iran is in turmoil.
10:54Many people simply don't believe the result.
10:58I was betrayed.
11:00Suddenly, that dream was taken away from me.
11:04This is gone.
11:06We want freedom!
11:08We want freedom!
11:10We want freedom!
11:12We want freedom!
11:12We want freedom!
11:12Nothing has been seen on the streets of Tehran like this
11:16since the revolution, right back in 1979.
11:20This shows the real intensity of feeling.
11:24These people feel that their election has been stolen from them
11:28and they're showing it in a way that Iranians are not used to doing it
11:33and haven't been used to doing it for 30 years.
11:59My name is Alfred Jacob Zadeh.
12:01I was born in Iran, but I spent 40 years in France
12:05and 20 years in Iran.
12:07Why did you go to Iran to cover the 2009 election?
12:14Like all the photojournalists, you know, I go everywhere.
12:18For me, as Iranian, covering the 2009 elections,
12:22it was something very personal.
12:24For me, it was interesting because it was my country
12:27and I wanted to see how people that are trying to grab,
12:31you know, their freedom, because their freedom was confiscated.
12:43In Iran, it's very scary.
12:46You know, I never experienced this kind of behavior, demonstration,
12:51and the number of security that are involved in this day.
12:55For this, I had no really idea that what's going to happen.
12:59I am here as a photojournalist.
13:03I have to do my job.
13:08And the secret is you shouldn't be arrested.
13:11I don't mind to be beaten,
13:13but I am, you know, more concerned to be arrested
13:17because the moment you are arrested, it's finished for you.
13:19And then when you spend months and months in jail,
13:22or maybe they rape you, they beat you, you know.
13:28Amateur video posted on the internet apparently showed the moment
13:31when government forces opened fire after their building was attacked.
13:35The eight people were hit in the gunfire.
13:40Tonight, we're hearing reports of trouble in big cities across the country.
13:44Rashed in the north, Mashhad in the east, Shiraz in the south.
13:49This is a dangerous moment for the Islamic Republic.
13:54On 20th of June 2009, we heard that there were protests going on.
14:00And then some people who we knew, they were sending us texts to say,
14:03you know, I'm here, I'm here.
14:05They're throwing tear gas.
14:11And I joined the rallies and the protests.
14:18And we walked and we were in the main road.
14:21The protests were happening.
14:27The rioters were shouting and they were throwing stones.
14:37Walking in the streets, everywhere, people have been hurt.
14:45Walking in the streets, everywhere, people have been hurt.
14:47Let's go!
14:52On that day, nobody was talking about their votes anymore.
14:55It was about death to dictator.
15:02So that was very visible how the narrative and this dialogue had changed.
15:12There was this really scary situation where this line of motorcycles from the anti-riot police.
15:27The most important in this kind of riot is the motorcycle with the guys on it.
15:31And this one is the best weapon against the street demonstrations.
15:36Their aim is to terrorize people, to get rid of them.
15:39And this is the only thing that you see there.
15:42It's the motorcycle noise.
15:45We ran the motorcycles, rushed towards the crowds.
15:48So we ran.
15:51The protesters, some of them started running away.
15:54Some of them stood by and tried to challenge them.
15:58Our eyes were burning because of fear gas.
16:01We didn't know what was happening.
16:04And then I heard a bang.
16:07And then another colleague started shouting,
16:11Look at this woman. She's vomiting blood.
16:13I was a doctor. I practiced as a doctor.
16:17That was the moment where I started running towards her.
16:20My face is very visible on that video.
16:23So I've been captured actually looking straight into the camera.
16:35I realized that she wasn't vomiting blood.
16:37It was blood gushing out of her chest.
16:44I immediately focused on exerting pressure on the point of hemorrhage
16:48and also making sure she could breathe.
17:03Within a minute, she died.
17:05There's no way she could have survived that.
17:09She stared into my eyes.
17:11I don't know what she was thinking about.
17:14But for me, I felt she was trying to say something.
17:18She was trying to ask something or tell me something.
17:24There was a big impact on me with that look.
17:27Hunted down, wounded, on the floor, dying.
17:30And that's how her eyes were looking.
17:36And that sense of innocence.
17:40I felt an obligation to look that she, when she was looking at me,
17:47as if saying, don't let this be in vain.
17:49I felt indebted to those eyes.
18:01The BBC Persian was the first news organization to receive that Nedagh Sultan footage.
18:06We didn't know her name, we didn't know how old she was,
18:10and we didn't know whether she was alive or not.
18:12But it was so important that we decided to put it on air,
18:15and that's exactly how I reported it.
18:18Soon after that, the video spread online.
18:20When people found out who she was,
18:22it became one of the iconic images that was being used
18:26when people were reporting about what was going on inside the country.
18:33It was the moment that the hope many Iranians had was killed.
18:49It was the same.
19:29My name is Mohsen Shaini Qambari. I'm from Iran.
19:35My name is Mohsen Shaini Qambari. I'm from Iran.
19:38My name is Mohsen Shaini Qambari.
19:54My name is Mohsen Shaini Qambari.
19:57My name is Mohsen Shaini Qambari.
20:03My name is Mohsen Shaini Qambari.
20:07My name is Mohsen Shaini Qambari.
20:13My name is Mohsen Shaini Qambari.
20:30We were in the road to the car.
20:31We were in the bus and on the bus to go to the airport.
20:35We were in the area of six or seven kilometers to the lake.
20:41We were less and less.
20:47and they were able to get the help of our people.
20:52And some of them were able to give up.
20:57They were able to give up.
20:59They were able to give up.
21:02They were able to give up.
21:07The way they were able to give up is the end of the world.
21:12It was a shame.
21:14Yes, it is.
21:16It's the opposite of the situation and the situation of the human being.
21:23Is it okay?
21:25Yes.
21:27Do you want it?
21:29No, it's okay.
21:32Let's go.
21:34Let's go.
21:44Let's go.
21:57I'll let you know.
22:00I have a question.
22:05I was like, oh, I'm not gonna get this.
22:07I'm just like, oh, that's fine.
22:13It's okay.
22:16I've always wanted to be a good person.
22:23I can't remember.
22:26I can't remember.
22:32I'm going to go to the next night and I'm going to go to the next day.
23:13In 2009, that was the point of no return for the Islamic Republic.
23:17It never recovered from that, and the people never forgot it.
23:21That point in time was very clear by the house arrest of Mirosem Mousavi, by the crackdown
23:26on the Green Movement, by the rigging of the election, by the killing of people with impunity.
23:33That it was a supreme leader.
23:35It was him and the Revolutionary Guard as its executive arm.
23:40He wanted to consolidate power at that point.
24:11I'm Shahr Sudmir Goli Khan, I'm a business woman.
24:16Everything is controlled from behind by the Revolutionary Guard and the supreme leader
24:24of Iran.
24:25Behind the scenes, this Revolutionary Guard and all of them are the ones who are making
24:31the movement and play the show.
24:41It just happened that I married with a Revolutionary Guard undercover person.
24:48Back then, I had no idea what is the Revolutionary Guard.
24:55The Americans were monitoring my husband, and they learned that he is one of the main weapon
25:02suppliers of the Revolutionary Guard of Iran.
25:08He asked me to be his translator in a meeting in Vienna.
25:20And I can tell you, when we arrived to Vienna, I really saw another person.
25:35He was not the same man that I knew.
25:39It's just like he took me out for shopping, which normally he was just like against shopping.
25:48I was like, wow.
25:51Too good to be true.
25:54Yeah.
25:55Okay.
25:56And then what happened?
25:59What have done God?
26:05We arrived to this Intercontinental Hotel.
26:09I didn't know which type of meeting is this.
26:12He was purchasing night vision goggles.
26:16In a blink of an eye, like, tens of these police, you know, did anti-terrorism one.
26:24Big guns, and they were like, stand on the wall, stand on the wall.
26:28It was an undercover set-up meeting by American government.
26:33We were all of a sudden arrested by Austrian authorities.
26:37And what were you arrested for?
26:40Exporting defense articles without having a license.
26:47I spent five years in American federal prisons.
26:52And what was that like?
26:55Horrible.
26:56I'm looking forward to be with my mother and with my two daughters that I have missed five
27:02years of their precious life.
27:15When I got back to Iran, I work in the state television.
27:25Part of my job was just checking on the contracts for purchasing different kind of equipments for
27:33Iran state broadcasting.
27:36And checking that there was no corruption going on with the foreign currency.
27:44When I went and checked to see where are the equipments,
27:50I just found out that such equipments doesn't exist.
27:54In a blink of an eye, like, 80 million euros were gone, were stolen.
28:01That has been paid with falsified paper works in return of nothing.
28:10When I saw all these corruptions, I was like, I'm going to stand up.
28:15And as long as I caught these corruption cases, and my boss was against corruption,
28:21we are going to stand up and make the changes to stop corruption in Iran.
28:28Then I was called for an interrogation with the Intelligence Department of Revolutionary Guard of Iran.
28:39And they told me, we cannot confront your boss.
28:43So within the next 24 hours, you are out of Iran forever and remain silent for the rest of your
28:50life.
28:54So this is how I left Iran, fighting against the corruption.
29:02And at the end, I was the one that they sent to exile.
29:19Because they knew that I'm not that type of character to keep quiet,
29:23the associated people at IRGC, they were really wanting to get me.
29:30And me being alive and taking this interview with you guys today, I consider it as a miracle.
29:38Because I should have been killed years ago.
29:55The biggest player in the economy is Iran's Revolutionary Guards.
29:59They get all the big contracts to build factories, roads, dams.
30:03And as a result, there is massive corruption amongst these basically military commanders
30:09who are now also running the Iranian economy.
30:12So the whole state of the economy is in a deadlock.
30:16But largely because of the mismanagement and corruption that is very widespread in the country.
30:22And the Iranian people, they had enough, so they had to do something about it.
30:42And the authorities that had to win.
30:48We had to purchase the official
30:51We tried to punch, these fires andываем,
31:09We were working hard because we were working hard.
31:17I am a member of Ahl Mahdi.
31:19I came to the world of Ahwaz and I was in an Arab country.
31:25I was a member of Ahwaz.
31:28I was a member of Ahwaz.
31:35I was working in the government of the government.
31:39I was working in a normal way every day.
31:57I couldn't do this.
32:00You see, the workers have 6 months, 7 months, 1 year old.
32:05I have a conversation with a man who doesn't have a house.
32:09You can't get angry with the kids who don't want to be able to help you.
32:14What do you want to do with them?
32:16It starts with the food and the food and the food.
32:22And it starts with...
32:26It starts with a lot of pressure from the whole community to show the situation.
32:39There were 24,000 workers in Kiev.
32:47They were able to make a statement.
33:01The audience members were
33:02in their audience,
33:04the audience,
33:05the audience,
33:05growing.
33:10Even the audience were
33:11in the audience.
33:22It became more peaceful and more clear that this war was the end of the war.
33:33We were in the war.
33:48This is the biggest show of dissent in Iran since the post-election rallies of 2009.
33:54It was one of the first times that we were witnessing such a well-organized strike movement
34:00inside the country.
34:01In certain areas of the country, unemployment is as high as 60 percent, and reports of extreme
34:07corruption have Iranians frustrated and hungry for change.
34:11Workers' strikes like these are always very threatening to the regime because the revolution
34:17that brought them into power was instigated with workers' strikes, and it can easily turn
34:25into a serious threat against the regime.
34:30So they know better than anyone that the same thing can happen to them.
34:44Yes.
34:47Yes.
34:49Yes.
34:51I'm surprised to have a Whew!
34:56Yes.
34:57Yes.
34:58Yes.
34:58Yes.
34:58Yes.
34:58Yes.
34:59Yes.
34:59Yes.
34:59and they found that the people of the Shikang and Shikang have all the places
35:05that they want to be able to enter.
35:15The most important thing is that the people of the Shikang and Shikang
35:21can't imagine anything.
35:25This is the fire, the batteries and the batteries.
35:38I am very special in the interview for you.
35:44If you want to do a test, you want to do a test,
35:54They don't always broadcast the false confession, sometimes they only hold on to it as leverage
36:00so they can put more pressure on the prisoner to force them to behave the way the regime
36:07wants them to behave.
36:09It was about 5 o'clock in the morning, so I was waiting for them to go there and tell
36:16them how to do it.
36:23I went to Tazahara.
36:29I was waiting for my first time to go to Tazahara.
36:33I was waiting for him to go to Tazahara.
36:34I was waiting for him to go to Tazahara.
36:34The man who was in the room was not in the room, I was waiting for him.
36:38Everyone would like to give us a right to us, and we would have to do it together.
36:49My dear friend Tazahara, my brothers,
36:55we are not working on them.
36:57I had to talk to him to Tazaharaara.
37:02He did the town, and I have to look for him.
37:02But Tazahara, my example, Tazahara.
37:11He had to take us for him.
37:12You are and they were.
37:16I was waiting for him to come to Tazahara.
37:18He fought against his troops.
37:19He wasashima.
37:20He was on the ground.
37:22He fought against him.
37:24He cried.
37:25All the time that Tazahara.
37:25I was going to fight against him.
37:26We are the fdu olhar media, and there is no way for her.
37:33I said that we had a lot of time,
37:38and we had a lot of time.
37:39We had a lot of time.
37:40We had a lot of time and we had a lot of time.
37:48They give a lot of energy and energy.
38:14After that night, I would never go to the house.
38:20I've never seen the house in five years.
38:42or a kid who was seven or nine years old,
38:48who was next to me.
38:52And I can only see them in the middle of a house.
38:58I don't know if there is a bigger one.
39:04I don't know if the government is only in the house
39:07or in the house.
39:09My name is Soran Mansournia.
39:10I was at the time of my life.
39:33My name is Soran Mansournia.
39:36I was born and lived in the Iranian Kurdistan in the west of Iran.
39:42I had a happy childhood with my brother, Borhan.
39:50We were so close in a way that many people know that there are two persons by the names of
39:59Borhan and Soran,
40:00but they didn't know which one is Borhan and which one is Soran.
40:06Most of the Kurdish people are Sunni, not Shia.
40:11And so there are many differences between the Kurdish people and the government.
40:18You can feel desperation and poverty everywhere.
40:34Increasing the price of petrol was a trigger.
40:39It was the moment that that barrel of gunpowder exploded.
41:01The reason of the protest was just the amount of corruption in the country became so fucking much that, look,
41:12it doesn't matter if you were poor or rich anymore.
41:14It didn't matter what was your job or anything.
41:18It was affecting everyone.
41:24People parked their cars in the main streets of all cities in Iran and they blocked the city in a
41:34very peaceful way.
41:38We had a small hope to change the decision of the government.
41:43They will step back from their decision.
41:52It was just frightening the amount of anger I was saying on the streets.
41:57But we were like, it doesn't matter anymore.
42:00We're gonna overthrow the regime or we're gonna die.
42:04It might have a lot of anger.
42:10Like Udlan Asinpul,
42:20in Kurdistan, it was still a long time ago and now it was still a long time ago
42:26and it was a long time ago and it was still a long time ago.
42:36At 7.30 in the morning, I went to the hospital
42:45and it was the only one who came in the middle of the street.
42:52It was the only one who came in the middle of the street.
42:53But the people of the people of the street were the same.
43:03I told you that you should all be able to do it.
43:09He was a very wrong person who could have the power of the government.
43:17The fog was very fast.
43:21They were also a very different way.
43:26They were making the fire of the army.
43:29They were making the fire.
43:29and it was in regard to it.
43:43Getting accurate information out of Iran is difficult
43:46because the authorities have shut down the internet.
43:50Shutting down the internet was an indication
43:52that something horrible was going to happen.
43:55We rely on the internet to get what's going on inside the country.
43:58And that sense of not knowing was so scary.
44:06So we had to use the footage that we had received from the previous days.
44:11We had to keep saying that the internet is still shut down
44:15and this suggests that something is going on inside the country.
44:21But then we managed to get a Kurdish activist that we trust on the line.
44:29We will be able to follow this movement of the Kurdish activist.
44:31What's your view of the Kurdish group of Kurds?
44:34How is this?
44:34I will be able to send the news to your parents
44:37and the Kurdish group of Kurds.
44:44I will send you to the Kurdish group of Kurds.
44:58How is this?
45:11It confirmed to us that the regime was planning to crack down on these protests at any cost,
45:18and they were prepared for these protests, and they will continue to kill and to imprison
45:26until people calm down and go home.
45:29Righto.
45:54Those who in Iran who decide to become political activists,
45:58and journalists doing so with immense bravery.
46:03Adnan Hassanpour had already spent 10 years in prison,
46:06and he knew that he would potentially put himself
46:10in more danger by not only speaking to us,
46:13but telling us about the atrocities
46:15that were being committed in his city.
46:27The next day, security forces are damaging cars,
46:32the parked cars in the streets.
46:36I could hear the sound of gunfire
46:39from distant locations of the city.
46:45The security forces are shooting teenagers
46:49with the real bullets.
46:55They were shooting to kill the people.
47:07In that time, my brother, Burhan, called me,
47:10and he said that he joined to the protest after his work.
47:15And we called each other several times
47:18about what's going on in the cities that we are in.
47:28After 20 minutes, I received a call by Burhan's number,
47:35but I heard a different voice.
47:39It was a person that said
47:43the owner of this mobile phone got shot.
47:50I couldn't control myself.
47:53I just ran.
47:59I ran for more than 45 minutes to find a taxi.
48:08I was worried about Burhan,
48:11and I had no idea what's going on now for Burhan.
48:19I arrived to the hospital.
48:24I saw many, many protesters who got shot
48:28in different parts of their body,
48:31where they're in the corridor.
48:33The whole rooms were occupied.
48:39We were waiting for Burhan for eight hours,
48:44and surprisingly, Burhan was alive.
48:51And he described everything for me, what happened.
48:54Burhan told me that people are occupying
48:59one of the police stations in Kermanshah.
49:06The chief of the station went on the top of the building
49:12and shooting on protesters.
49:15We killed five protesters in front of that station.
49:24And my brother Burhan and three other protesters got shot.
49:32Burhan's situation was unstable,
49:34and we called doctors several times to come
49:37to check what's going wrong.
49:41The doctors refused to treat the wounded people
49:45because the security forces ordered them
49:51that you cannot treat these rebels.
49:56He knew he was dying,
49:59and he requested for many simple things.
50:04I remember one of the music tracks
50:09that he asked me to play was
50:11The Partisan from Leonard Cohen.
50:14And I played with my phone for him.
50:17When they poured across the border
50:20I was cautioned to surrender
50:23This I could not do
50:27He wanted to taste the orange juice.
50:35A cube sugar.
50:38Secretly I found a cigarette for him,
50:40and he smoked for one or two breaths.
50:46But now I am happy that I did that.
50:49And some of them are with me.
50:57And some of them are with me.
51:03I couldn't accept what Burhan is saying,
51:06that this is the last night of my life.
51:08I couldn't accept that.
51:21I think he realized that he sacrificed his life
51:25for that protest, for the freedom.
51:35Even now, I am waiting for his messages.
51:42I am waiting for his calls.
51:44I am waiting for a call from Burhan that...
51:57That...
51:57That...
51:58Say me...
52:00Don't take you serious.
52:03You are a doctor.
52:05But don't take...
52:07You...
52:08Don't take yourself serious.
52:11You are the Soran that I played with him
52:15in the street of our childhood.
52:19You...
52:20You are that small Soran for me.
52:23Not...
52:23Not...
52:24Not doctor Soran.
52:27No, no.
52:42I had...
52:45I have the...
52:47That...
52:48Shut up.
52:50What was different in 2019 was the fact that the regime was prepared.
52:56had for these protests, and they wanted to use as much violence as possible in order
53:04to stop the protests as soon as possible.
53:12Up to this point, this was the bloodiest protest in the history of the Islamic Republic.
53:22It's widely believed that at least 1,500 people have been killed in those protests, but many
53:28believe that the number is much higher.
53:34The regime showed a new level of brutality in November 2019.
53:41They killed thousands of people in three days.
53:58There is no going back to before the November 2019.
54:03These protests have been going well in 2014.
54:31These protests have been going well in 2014.
54:33They've been gone for so many years.
54:34There was 2009, then there was 2018, then there's 2019.
54:41It keeps getting worse, more people get killed, and nothing comes out of it.
54:58W
54:58It's not the end of an issue.
55:00It's not the case.
55:02It's the case.
55:03It's not the case.
55:05I'm sorry.
55:06When I started to talk, I was able to share my story in the past.
55:12They said, what do you want to do?
55:15I said, what do you want to do?
55:22If you want to continue this situation, I will try to make it.
55:28I said, if you want to continue this situation,
55:35I will try to make it.
55:38I knew that my family has a lot to do.
55:42I was able to make it because of my family.
55:47But I thought that my family would be able to go outside.
56:00I'm not going to be able to do this.
56:02I'm not going to be able to do this.
56:03I'm not going to be able to do this.
56:29After 2009, each time it got more violent, more aggressive, and like more people would
56:37come out and like more people would be killed.
56:41They think they can stop us with this.
56:47You can choose to be a victim or you can choose to be the rebel, I mean it's just
56:54simple as that.
56:55Because if you want to be the victim and always be sad that like, oh, I was born in Iran,
56:59it's so fucking hard and like everybody's hurting me, but like you can fight back.
57:08The young generation, you know, something has changed.
57:13This is a war between our men and the Islamic Republic.
57:36It's almost unimaginable to have that much bravery.
57:55We just protest for the normal life.
57:59I think it changed our lives forever.
58:01It was like, it was game over.
