Zwei Männer sitzen an einem Teich mit historischen Gebäuden im Hintergrund, darunter eine Moschee mit zwei Minaretten, und eine Straßenszene mit Menschen, die Rote Rüben auf Spießen und in Tellern verkaufen, dazu Textinformationen zum Film "Rote Rüben in Teheran" und Kinostart am 2. September.

Beetroot in Teheran is about a father and son who go on a journey to Iran. For the father it is a return after more than 40 years, for the son, who grew up in Austria, it is a new experience. Father and son react in very different ways to Iranian society, traditions, family. They speak especially to female Iranian actors and filmmakers, ask about their role in Iranian society. While everything is new for the son, the father is confronted with memories of his past in Iran.
