Farugh Farrokhzad was primarily a poet. Indeed, she is regarded as one
of the most important poets of the twentieth century in Iran, which has
a millennium of poetic tradition behind it. Although she only made one
film, the 22 minute so-called documentary "The House is Black", this
work is generally seen as the crucial precursor of the Iranian New
Wave.
