An underground music scene in any country is a precious entity for the art and the people involved. Quality music and avid music fans at the core, the scene continues to burgeon across the world. But, in the country of Iran, underground western music is officially banned.
To put things into perspective, a new documentary, Raving Iran, explores country’s forbidden underground where a rising techno scene continues to thrive and is getting the attention of more people with each passing day. Despite of the ruthless consequences the purveyors of the scene face and live in the fear of facing every single day, two Iranian DJs, Anoosh and Arash are the flagbearers who live to carry forward their passion.
The trailer which you can see below highlights major points where the two brave personalities talk about how life-threatening their passion has cost them to be and the need to keep their art a secret. Produced by Swiss filmmaker Susanne Regina Meures, the film is a highly recommended watch for all dance music fans and for that matter, anyone who supports art.
