Jana and Baladoor

In a panorama as majestic as life itself, the shadow play Jana and Balaador is a masterful blend of poetry and myth. In this groundbreaking work, Bahram Beyzaie, Iran’s leading playwright and director, tells the story of a world dominated by dark demons, and the heroic battles of four mythic siblings—representing the four elements of air, water, earth and fire—and their battles to redeem and re-enchant the world.
