He finds Seyed\, the man who taught him everything he knows about standing up for his principles and on behalf of the vulnerable–but Seyed is a shadow of his former self\, a hopeless addict and loser\, living in the slums. The unlikely reunion of the two friends forces Seyed to reflect on what has become of him\, while the police draw nearer to Ghodrat. \n\n\n\nTHE DEER is the most revolutionary film of the Iranian New Wave\, censored innumerable times and banned to this day in Iran. For the first time it has been restored to its full length and with its original ending! The ending rewritten and shot at the behest of the Pahlavi censors will also be included after the film for comparison.  \n\n\n\n\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEyGzIa_IIA URL:https://cstpdx.com/event/the-deer-church-of-film/ CATEGORIES:film ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://cstpdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/the-deer.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230418T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230418T210000 DTSTAMP:20260702T053937 CREATED:20221117T193759Z LAST-MODIFIED:20221125T224425Z UID:10000692-1681844400-1681851600@cstpdx.com SUMMARY:Polyester DESCRIPTION:Please note: the April 18th screening will be shown with English language captions.
