کاربر ناشناس

Inspired by Nina Simone’s Four Women, the collaborative work کاربر ناشناس (in Farsi, ‘unknown user’) refers to the nationwide protests that broke out in Iran in 2022. The work conveys the protests and their consequences, documented and shared with various degrees of anonymity in social networks by users who often themselves stood at considerable risk by recording and sharing footage. Those unknown users' short videos are collated, in this work, around four thematic perspectives of some of the women who have witnessed, driven and participated in the protests.

کاربر ناشناس is commissioned and premiered by Ensemble KNM Berlin and is written for flute, contrabass clarinet, cello and electronics.

The film duo realillusion consists of Atefeh Kheirabadi og Mehrad Sepahnia.
