@MrDimab "They are stoning women and are hanging homosexuals."
Nice! And how do you know that? Have you been in Iran? No! I guess you are a typical American who believes whatever Fox News and CNN says! I'm not sure how many women have been stoned over the past three decades in Iran (not by PEOPLE, but by the GOVERNMENT, which is the same shit as the US government), but I don't think it's fair to extend this to Iranian people!
This depiction sidesteps the bloodshed and wholesale murder and oppression and dedication to toxic US Globalist hegemony that the Shah represented and even implies that "democracy" existed in Iran under the rule of the Shah...What Tripe!
It is not the religion but the people who wield religion for their own benefit.Take these people away from power, and let no war occur where such a beautiful people and culture would be forced to suffer for the elites in both countries the US and Iran.
DAMN to you to changed the SHAH with IMAM and who the hell is this guy to make this doc movie he was just allowed to film the buildings and streets what about the downtown Tehran or any other poor places in capital city, I think this guy was from press tv.
Iranian People are one of the best people in the world thy care about the others respect you as human being hospitality even if they be poor but their hurt is open and kind.
The problems are not Iranian people but the DAMN REGIME.
As an Iranian, I assure you people of Iran are nice and peaceful in fact they are trapped in their own country by a minority of clerics who has spreading Islam agenda! Why government send an agent to follow this guy all the time around? There are more than 7 million Iranian mostly self-exiled refugees since 1979 after the Islamic revolution, it says a lot. Unfortunately the ambition of clerics in Iran for advancing Islam by any mean will put Iranians & the world in danger one way or another!
Lets hope and pray we don't bomb another beautiful country and people. Please watch this and take a look. Lets not be ignorant of the people we aim to destroy AGAIN!
ALSO NOTE .. I DONT SEE ONE OBEASE IRANIAN.,..now go to the mall this weekend..what do you see...these people awesome!
It's a good thing he didn't turn the camera on until he was in Iran. I imagine if he had turned it on outside their borders the Iranians would have killed him for espionage.
When I saw this episode I facepalmed when he suggested the Iran-Iraq War was "their Vietnam". Iran didn't start the Iran-Iraq War, and just like in Vietnam, the U.S. was on the invading/losing side.
Its not about people simplicity and good intentions, its about greed and superiority of the dominant elite as it was throughout history now its the americans ,500 bc we were the ones as it was mentioned in this vid 28 submissive countries had to pay tribute to the persian empire ,what goes around comes around...
I'm a liberal Democrat, not a looney anti-Semitic leftist, and I agree that this looks like a it's well-staged propaganda clip. The Shah was demonized but, in fact, his regime wasn't nearly oppressive as the current regime.
it is interesting how frequently the narrator brings up the fact that he is from States. As if he were waiting for a response that would confirm the western views about how Iranians think of them. If you think any sane person would start discussing an ambiguous topic like that in front of cameras, then you are deeply mistaken.
I lived in Iran for many years. This country is corrupt as fuck a country can get. It has history, culture but poverty and corruption have ruined this country. And it is going to go downhill. There is no freedom in Iran and a lot of Iranians hate their government. Ever wondered why there are so many Iranians coming to other countries as migrants or refugees? They must have been fed up in their own land. Great country, evil government.
@AndyHarglesis the us does not want oil!! why the hell do you and everyone say that. we have MORE OIL in our stockpiles then all of SWA combined.. and if we were after oil how come oil prices in US have not dopped but have INCREASED 68% in last 3 yrs?? you are stupid.. ooh and this broadcast is biased.. it was paid for by a Iraninan backer. WAKE the HELL up. I have been to IRAN (5 yrs ago) and its 90% slumms.. sure this broadcast is going to show the best..
@TajiTJ I am not wrong.. i have seen them. I have been there to save a relative who married a CRAZY ass Iranian and kidnapped theyre daughter and made them LIVE under the fucking crazy ass bullshit over there. I had to hide in different locations with my relative for weeks until i could get her out. and while there EVERYONE had a fucking wepaon of one type or another.. and regardless of what you say all that ISLAM crap is nothing but the devil at work.. YOU GET A CLUE. .

@REALVOICEOFLIBERTY I lived in Iran for almost 7 years and as a blond haired blue eyed American, I never saw anything but the best of these people. I have lived all over the world and Tehran is the most beautiful city I have ever laid eyes on. Too bad you are too far trapped in your own dogma to see, but as Christians and Muslims both know, those who have eyes do not always see. Only your heart can allow you sight. You are as hateful as the extremists ideology that you claim is the devil.
@CaptainRidley Perhaps its the 90%'s reliance on the inherently violent State to govern our society and commerce.

This is such a beautiful & amazing documentary video about Iran. I tell you I enjoyed knowing about Irans' culture,people, & society, since all I hear about Iran in the news is how hostile war freak it is. I mean it's just like any other country in the world, with bazaars,supermarkets,malls,restaurants,clothing stores,families strolling in the parks,there are poor,middle class & rich people,etc. It's such a huge country too at 78M people wow.
Too bad USA & Nato is so determined to invade attack
@Billabongs122988 Russia released a statement that if america ever invades iran, it would be perceived as an invasion on Russian soil. and if Russia goes to war with america, china would side with them in a heartbeat.
@Billabongs122988 USA does not ivade. but if CRAZY ass IRAN keeps on threatening Europe and the damn Europeans keep putting heads in the fucking sand like then the USA will have to BAIL them out like they do everyone else. I wish the USA would just let Europe, Iraq, afghan deal for themselves.. IN FACT do like other counties Keep our military in the USA and keep all the CRAZI People out(like the fucking muslims)
Now i can change my views over Iranian people, what the western world saying is not the true.And the Iranians are really friendly. Thanks for the author for his efforts to product this documentary
As an Iranian American i want better relations between the 2 counties,I want Iran & US to start fixing their relationship based on mutual respect. I want an end to harsh Sanctions on the people of Iran ,, I want sanctions only on guilty individuals in IR and their assets.Sanctions did not get rid of Sadam. Sanctions will lead to WAR & BOMBING of Iran . Better/fair relations with Iran will empower the moderates in Iran and might lead to better human rights.
In Iran people get officially, "religiously" hanged weekly, the children get "teached" in school to hate jews and all west and give up their earthly body for djihad. Religious murder is murder too. Stop sharia worldwide! You make me sick!
All the medieval splendour is because of the heavy loot that these people carried out on India in 17th century....the armies of Nadir Shah almost hammered the Taj Mahal to pieces....they killed so manu Hindus....raped and plundered....but look how India is so much better off now compared to this nation..
India is better?! Indians are poor, the country is dirty, half the people don't even have toilets! How the fuck is it better?! Have you seen pics of India?
@akivapolo - you're Jewish as much as I am Chinese ! There is no Jewish on planet Earth to have a good word for Muslims. We are bombed with Jewish-American propaganda through the all mass-media, every day, but the real Evil is all those who mess our world, and has nothing to do with the Arab world. Iran is a great country, and a MUST for ALL travelers ! Americans will find out the meaning of OLD CIVILIZATION compare to their concrete-steel world, and hamburgers.
long story short, iran is a typical middle eastern country that is trying to catch up with the modern world, and is getting cornered at gunpoint doing so.
Iranians are peaceful and would not ever want to start a war. Learn their history and magnify how wonderful a country Iran is. Iranians have invented many things, which are used in everyday life across the globe! No appreciation eh?
Compare Iran's history to USA's, is Iran always interfering in other countries? How many wars have they started? I could go on and on. Now look at the USA, controlled by Zionists...
The question is, which government is the real threat to this world?
A wonderful documentary! Iran is beautiful; if the relations between Iran and the West were good enough, Iran would have a lot of tourists.
Ignore the Zionists propoganda! Israel must be prevented in starting yet another war!
If they do start a war on Iran, I assure you that Israel could potentially perish [and nobody wants that; Ahmadinejad ONLY said that he wants the Zionist Regime to collapse, just as the Soviet Union did in Russia]. He never said that he wanted to wipe Israel off the map!
As an Iranian I could say that it was a humble and genuine try to know our highly complex and diverse country. I just have to correct something, the 8 years war between Iran and Iraq was not religious whatsoever. Actually Iraq has the Shiite majority. From Iraq side it was fueled with nationalism and from Iran side it was fueled with religion but that does not make it a religious war.
I was just going to watch a few minutes...was drawn in and watched the whole thing. Damn. Beautiful country, tolerant and kind people. They all know they have a screwed government, but what can they do? Obama please don't destroy this country just because Washington and Tehran want to have a gun show.
The Americans will fix it, after they bomb it to dust the Iranians are going to be so happy. Hopefully the NWO goes down for the sake of everyone in the world because they are the real enemies to people of this world!
i was here to take the tour in 3 minutes.. but i took the whole 55.53 minutes.. very impressive country with beautiful and kind people.. i hope there will never be a war..
@animalnt id fuck your whole family and people you sick minded prick you'll regret saying that one day when your country is no longer existing on this earth mother fucker. as a matter a fact israel is no where NEAR touching iran. i'd still slaughter your family in front of your face for saying that mother fucker! :@:@:@
wow wat an amazing country u dont see bums and hobos or alcohol problems like our western countrys so rich in history i hope america & isreal keep there bg noses out of here i want to visit this place sum day being irish is totally dif from being iranian
@animalnt lol israel? are you kidding. if israel even has the balls to touch iran. The entire middle east is pist off right now, so the last thing they will tolerate is a tiny little spec of retarded jews trying to start a war.
@animalnt An Israeli attack on Iran has been "imminent" for the past 10 years. Not gonna happen because Israel wouldn't be able to seriously defend itself from the military response from Iran. If they could, then they would've attacked Iran's nuclear facilities just like they bombed the reactor in Iraq. Iran will offer a quick and decisive blow to Israel if it is attacked and Israel knows that. If anybody bombs Iran it will be the USA on orders from Israel, and I doubt that will happen either.
you call your Armenian friend or if you don't have a Christian friend, you better have a friend that knows one. No joke btw, I'm being serious. Christians are allowed to drink, make wine and have drinks at their religious events. My aunt lived in a neighborhood full of Armenian christians so we always had alcohol. One call and we would have beer at the door in 10 mins lol.
Thank you Steve and video team for this great documentary on Iran. I really enjoyed seeing what life is really like in Iran. Education like this is so important for people in the west. It benefits everyone, Iranian people, US and Canadian people.
This is my first view of Iran and what it seems to be really like.
boring movie, i'm polish and i'm interested in iranians and not what they think about usa or how usa-iran relations look like, if you want to talk about america in the movie then say it at the beginning and not start with 'movie about iran' and then all i hear is american shit
@RookOfOnyx You are a sick primitive monkey. Crawl back to the sewer where you were born. Hard to deal with being the love child of Freddy Kruger I know, but one day you will have to get over it. Persia is a civilized country with an ancient culture, you are only expressing what one would expect from a country in its consciousness infancy. You are a disgrace to your own people, but one would expect it considering you have the IQ of a gnat.
@1302VL Stone age implies there will still be people in it using tools. There will be nothing but cinder after we get done with those lazy savages who have let religion dominate their government.
This was a very strong documentary. It was very neutral, showing all of the positives, without sugar coating the negatives. I am an Armenian Christian who grew up in Iran. It is true that the government is not representative of the people and that people in general are very well educated and very open minded. However one must also note that there is some anger at the west, and watching this documented, you can see it's not unjustified.
Amazing video. Its stuff like these that needs to educate people about the world. The government and its media loves to spread bullshit and lies. Western leaders do it, i bet the Iranian leader does it too. But to his ignorance he doesn't realize he cannot fool people either. Also to the sick fucks here commenting and talking about bombing and entire nation and its men/women/children need to go shoot themselves.SICK FUCKS like you hinder freedom and liberty of people everywhere around the world
wow. i'm american, jewish, and this video really makes me want to visit iran. they've got crappy government, but these people have a real civilization. a lot of worldly, open-minded people too, maybe even more so than americans in some ways. it's consistent with the iranians i've met.
@akivapolo I think that's very subjective. From Iranian (or in my case, European) point of view, you guys have a really crappy government. The U.S. government is constantly finding fault with others and dictating how other people should live. If you'd bother to check the data presented by Washington, you'd understand that it's one huge propaganda. :-)
@akivapolo wow, i'm american, and my father is jewish and i've been to israel. OUR governments (israel and the US) are MUCH worse than iran in many respects. of course, as far as freedom of speech, and religious mixing with gov, we are much better. however, i have no illusions about the USG or the israelis gov. do false flag terror attacks and massive illegal wars of aggression ring a bell? BTW i have jewish family in iran (by marriage). WATCH!! /watch?v=OQgVCj7q49o
@akivapolo BTW, 9/11 was a USG false-flag, but if you want to know about the israeli angle, as mossad played a role on the ground in the US, google: scribd 9/11 urban moving. of course, the bulk of the blame falls on the USG and the key players in the USG that orchestrated and facilitated the false-flag, and the cover-up. so does iran have more gov problems than we do? we only don't have a problem cause we go along with faiytales, illegal wars, and massive wealth transfers. this will change soon
@akivapolo Their crappy government is the reason Iran is developing as a 21st century nation. If America, Israel and the west weren't all up in Iran's business trying to steal their oil and natural resources and installing dictators...the present Iranian government would not be crappy.
You're just mad that .2% of the world population dominates science, politics, culture, and economics. It must hurt to be a stormfag and be a member of a gullible, uncreative race of pig men that can't even get its politics together enough to invest in science. Science is the mark of truly great people. Mudslimes killed all their intellectual culture in 1300 AD, and Europeans get all their science from Jews who are doing the actual real work of civilization. Get a real job you inferior goy.
@Iateamexican Disgusting subhuman Mexican dog calling Indo-European Persians who have reached civilization and cultural heights you smelly bean niggers could only dream of. That's rich!
Proud to be a Croatian skinhead, I will always defend my Persian brothers.
So Iran's has it defects from a foreign point of view. Is that an excuse to invade and create missery?. Why don't you invade africa where goverments are corrupt and let their citizens starve to death?. Why don't you invade yourself and arrest lobbyst that are clearly ruining your country with the corporations interests. You're losing your liberties and stop messing with other countries. Each country deals with it's own problems
search..."Iran Before 1979"...... the people had freedom, and women did not have to cover up, I hope these brave people get that freedom back again, as I would love to visit this facinating country..
Wow you guys are ridiculous. If the west hated the Iranian people then they wouldn't bring in millions of them to become citizens in the west. The west hates the Iranian government and so does most of the Iranian people.
Thanks, but why you didn't take us to the prisons to see the tortured political prisoners and secular youth and to the families of the young students which were killed by the murderous regime in the protests at 7/2009 and before that?
This guy Rick Steves... is he a retard ? and your goverenment is fucked up.
For all I know Xerxes seems way better than allah... and you guys really think that Ron Paul will make a difference? hahahaha, if he evern gets all the votes he wont be president, Us is nothing but a sionist country now controlled by the jews. well I hope you start fighting to get your Sha back bros, or else your fucked xD Peace from No way <3
The United States should stay out of Iran, unless the people of Iran ask for the assistance of the US. For now, the people of Iran see more than content.
Stupid shiitties cant run a country. They must be removed from power and freedom and democracy must return to the iranian people. In the event of all-out war, bunker-bust all oil drilling sites and immediately have them beg into submission. Mullahs will not succeed. Mark my words
i like ron paul but for us if ron paul takes of the pressure of iran this barbaric regime will stand longer, its time these evil government leaves if its war or not war
Im iranian and i totaly agree with the girl 95% of iranian people dont want war! Its the government that wants war! Our country wants peace with America! Rick Steaves did a good job on the documentry, but when i was there last year it was bigger and not alot of people covered there hair! & Tehran was a buetifull city! I think the guy that the government gave to him took him to places that had more chador women in it! but over all i loved it!
America please keep your grubby hands off the rest of the world. Iranian's will at least know where America is unlike so many world ignorant Americans.

As an Iranian American i want better relations between the 2 counties,I want Iran & US to start fixing their relationship based on mutual respect. I want an end to harsh Sanctions on the people of Iran ,, I want sanctions only on guilty individuals in IR and their assets.Sanctions did not get rid of Sadam. Sanctions will lead to WAR & BOMBING of Iran . Better/fair relations with Iran will empower the moderates in Iran and might lead to better human rights.

Iranians are peaceful and would not ever want to start a war. Learn their history and magnify how wonderful a country Iran is. Iranians have invented many things, which are used in everyday life across the globe! No appreciation eh?
Compare Iran's history to USA's, is Iran always interfering in other countries? How many wars have they started? I could go on and on. Now look at the USA, controlled by Zionists...
The question is, which government is the real threat to this world?

A wonderful documentary! Iran is beautiful; if the relations between Iran and the West were good enough, Iran would have a lot of tourists.
Ignore the Zionists propoganda! Israel must be prevented in starting yet another war!
If they do start a war on Iran, I assure you that Israel could potentially perish [and nobody wants that; Ahmadinejad ONLY said that he wants the Zionist Regime to collapse, just as the Soviet Union did in Russia]. He never said that he wanted to wipe Israel off the map!

As an Iranian I could say that it was a humble and genuine try to know our highly complex and diverse country. I just have to correct something, the 8 years war between Iran and Iraq was not religious whatsoever. Actually Iraq has the Shiite majority. From Iraq side it was fueled with nationalism and from Iran side it was fueled with religion but that does not make it a religious war.

@animalnt An Israeli attack on Iran has been "imminent" for the past 10 years. Not gonna happen because Israel wouldn't be able to seriously defend itself from the military response from Iran. If they could, then they would've attacked Iran's nuclear facilities just like they bombed the reactor in Iraq. Iran will offer a quick and decisive blow to Israel if it is attacked and Israel knows that. If anybody bombs Iran it will be the USA on orders from Israel, and I doubt that will happen either.

This was a very strong documentary. It was very neutral, showing all of the positives, without sugar coating the negatives. I am an Armenian Christian who grew up in Iran. It is true that the government is not representative of the people and that people in general are very well educated and very open minded. However one must also note that there is some anger at the west, and watching this documented, you can see it's not unjustified.

@akivapolo I think that's very subjective. From Iranian (or in my case, European) point of view, you guys have a really crappy government. The U.S. government is constantly finding fault with others and dictating how other people should live. If you'd bother to check the data presented by Washington, you'd understand that it's one huge propaganda. :-)

Science is the mark of truly great people. Mudslimes killed all their intellectual culture in 1300 AD, and Europeans get all their science from Jews who are doing the actual real work of civilization. Get a real job you inferior goy.
