5:46 am
a book presentation near munich. and, and mention all fixed, or if you grow up in munich in a democracy. but he never ask yourself the question of what democracy means, thought i. but when i came to iran, i was confronted with the fact that i no longer had freedom kyle and no longer had pieced kind of freedom out. it's my belief that the is in is not in essence 0. you can't report freely in the islamic republic of iran, venson state, and that your heart from who none of the country is ranked 178. that of $100.00. 80 on their reporters without borders landed for thought. i know they constantly tried to thwart journalist month becomes, and they put obstacles in their way. and vicki, league, dancer, sean, and then there's the question of how you can report on such a country has that's how you can convey what is really happening there. dought password then because life as it's portrayed by the regime, it's just
5:47 am
a bluff is. yeah. and corner nominate, i'm bluff. it was it's only on television. women are portrayed us having freedom. i know i was having rights and it was torn deed, but in reality, a woman in iran hardly has any rights to defect what and of how she only counts as half a personal event noise as, as had by mench exceeded. these law mac regime has been empowered for 44 years ever since the 1979 revolution ended the monarchy unopposed of then rulers shaw mohammed, razor pac larvae. his successor was a ron's 1st supreme leader, ayatollah to holler hominy, who turned the iranian revolution. internet law mc one, with far reaching consequences. we spoke to rainy and noble peace prize, laurie at sharina body. she was the 1st female judge in the history of iran, and was in iran when the show was overthrown. today she renee body lives in exile

5:49 am
zona saw it really for me. so when the show was in power before we were doing quite well, given the circumstances who also knew high if we had personal freedom all, all, there were no problems in that respect. but mostly what we didn't have under the shop was political freedom, uncle ne, ne. so we thought homey me would bring us political freedom. he goes, but unfortunately that didn't happen. is danielle wu. not only did he failed to bring us political freedom on what passed upon it, he took away the personal freedom that we had it as we were russ s o d. and then our economic situation also deteriorated. it, it must be done. you don't miss your blood pressure after the revolution, she ran a body, lost her job as a judge. the explanation being that women were not suitable for that position. in

5:51 am
the u. s. is seen as the countries main enemy. iran presents itself as united with china and russia in their fight against the west. but in private, behind closed doors, things are a bit different. yeah, as a does, it's much been one example is this twitter account called rich kids of tehran. i looked in which tries to show how the regime does not follow its own principles of dissolution, unit to lease, and they have built up this religious dictatorship in the country in law with its rules and oppression would. is that indicated that what then we seek their own children. anybody who obviously don't want to be subjected to these rules of leave, not because they are young and have grown up with digital media more. and with me to get i made an oscar voxel seemed to listen to look, that's western bread and super fancy. that feed month and you're not going to see a party video into iran, especially there is a big party scene. although of course everything happens behind closed doors and in secret, it's really hard to think. often it's the children of islamic revolutionary guard
5:52 am
core who are there because they are never subject to controls. don't got these. no one can buy a checks whether people are dancing, whether men and women are mixing, whether alcohol is being consumed are they are well off. they live off their parents money, which is essentially the people's money from their tax revenues from the before go home from the revolutionary gar, discipline, economic power in iran, vh of they could. so the whole national economy forks near trough. many companies in the or their c, e. o is a revolutionary guards which one's got these, meaning they have a lot and economic power of each of coffee. pish thou. meanwhile, many citizens struggle to make ends meet corruption, political isolation and international sanctions are all taking their toll on the general population. the iranian real is losing value every day. if it is expensive, norm and lots of people have a problem with ford and ping that you need for leaving it last bad the last half
