Zagros follows the creation of hand-made carpets across the Zagros mountains in Western Iran, the land of Bakhtiaris. Wool is the guiding thread that traverses the worlds of weavers, dyers and shepherds, revealing nomadic and sedentary cultures through labour. Carpets weave the social fabric of their lives, giving it form as well as colour. The work is hard, and is gradually being devalued by the outside world – but their lives are redeemed because of the love they feel for their traditions.
