The Javaad Alipoor Company: Things Hidden Since the Foundation of the World

ABOUT THE EVENT

Fereydoun Farrokhzad is invisible to everyone apart from, mostly, Iranians, because nobody apart from them ever has to think about him.

In 1992, the Iranian pop sensation and refugee Fereydoun Farrokhzad, sometimes called Iran's Tom Jones, was found brutally murdered in his home in Germany, only six months after playing to sold-out audiences at London’s Royal Albert Hall. The case was never solved.
