This is new documentary about Shahab Tolouie (شهاب طلوعی) for weekly music show by Behzad Bolour (بهزاد بلور) – Bolour Banafsh (بلور بنفش). Produced and broadcasted by BBC Persian TV.
The movie was recorded in Prague at the beginning of May 2013. It slightly opens the creative process of the new album “Terra Mediterranea”, which is set for release this autumn. Besides of listening to several samples of new music, you get to meet Shahab’s band members and pry about recording of the song “My Lost Smile” in studio. At the same time there is a fresh look on Prague’s musical and historical attractions such as: John Lennon Wall, Vltava River, Prague Castle, Charles Bridge, Lavka, Kampa and Lovers Bridge.

It has become a favourite track with many people after a live performance on BBC TV (2009). Due to high demand, it’s been chosen as the debut single before the new album release.
Rainforest emphasises the problem of deforestation of tropical forests around the World. All the facts say that we are losing vast tracts of one of the Earth’s greatest biological treasures. Rainforests once covered 14% of the earth’s land surface; now they cover a mere 6%.
