An Iranian actress poses for a photograph while preparing to perform in the play titled 'The Sier' at the Shahrzad Theater complex in downtown Tehran, Iran, on January 24, 2025. 'The Sier' is about people living in an imaginary land that is actually a huge prison, where they are prisoners. A dictator who rules over them has taken away their powers of sight and thought and given them a key that they believe will open a door leading to freedom.
