		Zahedi's odyssey began on Sept. 6, 2001, when he arrived in New York with his father and younger brother to attend the 54th annual international peace conference at the United Nations, hosted by the U.N. Department of Information/Nongovernmental Organizations.
		It was the latest of several such events Zahedi had attended around the world with his father, Mansour Ghazi Zahedi, president of the Peace Center of Iran and a university professor in the country's capital city of Teheran.
		Zahedi found that he had a lot in common with the 29-year-old single mom, who had been raised in the Islamic faith when her father converted to Islam.

	the Islamic Republic today has more dissatisfied citizens, larger opposition, fewer resources, and a far weaker economy ...
		Zahedi believes that many of the sociological factors that worked against the Shah in 1979 are also at work against the present Islamic Republic'.
		In Zahedi's words, "without the cohering presence of Khomeini and the indispensable coordination mechanism provided by the mosques, Iran's hodgepodge and contradictory opposition could have been divided through co-optation, succumbed to repression, or disintegrated due to personal and ideological cleavages and rivalries" (134).
		Aside from the structural differences between the politics of the two regimes (i.e., the Shah's centralized and personal politics versus the Islamic Republic's decentralized and depersonalized politics), there are leadership qualities that differentiate the two and have contributed to the demise of the Pahlavi regime and the continuation of the Islamic Republic.

		Zahedi was involved in an endeavor with one other person to translate and informally distribute a Farsi edition of Salman Rushdie's banned novel The Satanic Verses.
		When Zahedi did not heed the summons, a notice was published in the official government paper stating that Zahedi must appear in court or face a default verdict.
		Zahedi attempted to answer as best he could by relating events to each other; for example, he stated that he discovered that Moshen had been arrested twenty days before he left Iran, that he was in Turkey during "Ramadan of the last year," and that he arrived in Bellingham around lunchtime.

	Cine Club: Caveh Zahedi
		Zahedi argues that, by revealing these "Holy Moments," film should (though it seldom does) reorient our perspectives not only toward the arts but also toward the beautifully varied and complex creation in which we live.
		Zahedi has often recorded himself in altered states; his most recent was a mushroom scene in In the Bathtub of the World (2001), a day-by-day video diary of an entire year.
		Zahedi measures the power balance between himself and his students, and the process recalls the work of Mohsen Makhmalbaf and other Iranian filmmakers who, like Zahedi, mix fiction and nonfiction with self-revelation, reenactment, and an occasional touch of cruelty.

	Fazlollah Zahedi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Born in Hamedan in 1896, he was the son of Abol Hassan "Bassir Diwan" Zahedi, a wealthy land owner at the city of Hamedan, Fazlollah Zahedi was appointed general of the Iranian army at the age of 25.
		While Zahedi actively backed Mossadeghs nationalisation of Iran's oil industry, a move that antagonised the United Kingdom and the Western Powers, he was at odds with him over Mossadeghs increasing tolerance for the outlawed communist party Tudeh, which had seized the opportunity and boldly demonstrated for Iranian rights to its national resources.
		Zahedi's family descends from the Sufi mystics Sheikh Zahed Gilani (1216 - 1301) and Sheikh Safi Al-Din Ardebili, the eponym of the Safavid Dynasty.

	Song of Myself: Caveh Zahedi’s Cinema of Self-Exposure. By Jason McBride.
		Zahedi’s films are largely concerned with his turbulent romantic life and artistic struggles, his fondness for psychedelics, and his penchant for philosophical gab.
		Zahedi’s wooing of Erin (a process that involves The Smiths, Tarkovsky, and LSD) veers from the bathetic to the endearing, but she remains largely immune to his charms.
		Zahedi, somewhat estranged from both of them (father George having been a womanizer who rarely spent time with young Caveh and Amin being a surly teen), hopes that the trip will bring them closer—and, to ensure this, he brings along a few hits of Ecstasy, believing that the family that gets high together stays together.

	Success hurts -- at least where filmmaker, ex-sex addict Caveh Zahedi is concerned
		Zahedi's portrayal of a man who trashes two marriages and numerous relationships with his craving for prostitutes is endearing to the point of pathos: Large of eye and small of bone, the fragile-looking protagonist seems as much a victim of his desires as his suffering girlfriends.
		Zahedi moved on to Paris, where he tried to woo backers, including the French government, for films about poets Arthur Rimbaud and Stephen Mallarme and photographer Eadweard Muybridge.
		The French actress playing Zahedi's first wife was deported mid-production, requiring a weekend dash to Paris to film her final scenes (San Francisco locales stood in for Europe in the rest of the film).

		Fourteen years in the making and spanning eighteen years, Caveh Zahedi’s I am a Sex Addict, despite a lukewarm reaction upon its initial release, might be the most important film of the new century and will slowly find its place as a major achievement in world cinema.
		Talking directly to the camera on his wedding day, Zahedi uses reenactments, animation, home movies, photographs, and other visual aids to tell the detailed story of his sexual addiction; focusing close attention on the suffering he’s caused the women in his life.
		Not afraid of the unflattering self-portrait that emerges, Zahedi plainly shows us the considerable lengths to which he goes to feed his addiction and painstakingly examines his inner struggle to face it.
