Azerbaijan: From Aras to Tehran presents a compelling look at a pivotal time in Azerbaijani history, weaving through the Qajar dynasty's complexities and the turbulent Russo-Iranian wars. The film takes us along the Aras river, a silent witness to the struggles and aspirations of a region caught between empires. The atmosphere is thick with a sense of nostalgia and loss, especially as it delves into the Persian Constitutional Revolution and the legacy of Sattar-Khan in Tabriz and Tehran.
