The film portrays peripheral spaces between urbanity and suburbia just outside the Iranian capital of Tehran. German filmmaker Daniel Kötter opens up four different spaces of transition on the outskirts and shows rarely seen parts of the country. Slow paced camera pans across buildings and landscapes are accentuated by conversations between real estate agents and their clients, or people living in the area, talking about expulsion and migration. "Hashti Tehran" tells the story of how social spaces are not created due to locality, but through use and occupation by people.
