"At the height of the protests following Iran's controversial presidential election this summer, a young woman named
Neda Agha Soltan was shot and killed on the streets of Tehran. Her death -- filmed on a camera phone, then uploaded to
the Web -- quickly became an international outrage, and Soltan became the face of a powerful movement that threatened
the hard-line government's hold on power.
In A Death in Tehran, FRONTLINE revisits the events of last summer, shedding new light on Neda's life and death and the
movement she helped inspire." [2009, 40 minutes]
