- Overview
- The title of the film, Persian Walk, refers to Montesquieu's well-known book Persian Letters, in which we see and interpret contemporary French reality through the eyes of a loyal stranger, a Persian prince. The film is therefore about how we can see our own age and perceive our own present. (János Sugár)
