a/political presents Alamut by Laibach, an original symphonic work by the engineers of human souls – the retro-avant-garde group Laibach, composed by Luka Jamnik in collaboration with Idin Samimi Mofakham and Nima A. Rowshan. Alamut is an original symphonic work by Laibach based on a famous story from eleventh-century Persia, as told by the Slovene writer Vladimir Bartol in his novel of the same title published in 1938. The central character is Hassan-i Sabbāh, the charismatic religious and political leader of the Nizari Ismailis and the founder of a mysterious military formation known as the Assassins, whose name is still feared and respected today. In Laibach’s Alamut, the ideas of radical nihilism interweave with the classical Persian poetry of Omar Khayyam, the sensual verses of Mahsati Ganjavi blend with minimalist orchestral colours derived from Iranian tradition. Hassan-i Sabbāh’s propaganda mechanism is echoed in the industrial principle of the workings of the orchestra and Laibach’s unique sound. The trailer featured is an excerpt from a feature film produced by a/political and Staragara and directed by award-winning Sašo Podgoršek. The upcoming film documents the development and showcase of Alamut against the ever-changing landscape of diplomatic relations between Iran and Europe.
