Ahmad Jalali Farahani works as a journalist in Iran. On 27 December 2009, he sees an innocent man being killed on the street, but neither Ahmad or his colleagues dare write about the murder. The journalists are hard-pressed and struggle daily against censorship and control, and even the otherwise conservative newspaper Tehran Emrooz gets to know the wrath of President Ahmadinejad, when it is ordered closed after the publication of one single critical picture.
