Summary |
Animated blogs and tweets form the backbone of this enlightening and sometimes shocking reconstruction of Iran's 2009 Green Revolution. In May of that year, the youthful green-clad crowds were enraged, and the atmosphere in the stadium where presidential candidate Mir Hossein Mousavi held his speech was explosive. Election Day itself was a deception on a massive scale and marked the beginning of the period in which Mousavi was put under house arrest; Ahmadinejad seized power and demonstrators were shot.
