Neda


The footage of the death of Neda Agha-Soltan drew international attention after she was killed during the 2009 Iranian protests. Her death was captured on video by bystanders and was broadcast over the internet. The video became a rallying point for the opposition. It was described as "probably the most widely witnessed death in human history".

Neda in Persian means "voice" or calling", which is the main stress of this project. Neues Atelier is working on this project with the whole team, supported by dancers from Konservatorium Wien and Iranian musicians in Vienna.
