عباس به روایت عباس
Directed by Kamy Pakdel • 2019 • Iran
Abbas was an international reporter. He went on the scene of the great events that have shaken the world from the 70s to our days.
He worked for all the major news agencies. In other words, his work is at the heart of the history of news photography. But not only. Beyond being a witness of his time, he was also its confidant. This is reflected in his way of engaging himself in a conflict, to travel a country, without any a-priori, to meet men caught in the jolts of history, but also by his curiosity for how men live different religions.
Here is the portrait of an observer of the world, the last words of a great photographer of our time, a few days before disappearing.
