Residents of One Way Street

Residents of One Way Street is a documentary about the lives and memories of six residents of one street in Tehran: The current 'Si-ye Tir' or the former 'Qavam-o-Saltaneh' Street, located in District 12 of Tehran. This street is situated between City Park in the south and Jomhoori Avenue in the north. The street was originally named 'Qavam-o-Saltaneh' because the residence of Qavam os-Saltaneh, a prominent politician of the Qajar and Pahlavi eras, was located on it. After the Revolution in 1979, the street was re-named as Si-ye Tir [30th of Tir] to commemorate those who got martyred on that day in 1952 and who were killed during the time Qavam-o-Saltaneh was the Prime Minister. The street is one of the oldest in Tehran and in the past, people of different religions lived on it . Places of worship belonging to different religions and sects ( Armenian Christians and other Christians, Jews, Muslims and Zoroastrians ) can be found on this street. Now all that remains from the residents of the street are memories and photo albums.
