Documentary on Iranian modern art featuring iconic figures such as Jalali Sousan-Abadi, Jalil Ziapour, Marcos Grigorian, Behjat Sadr, and Sadegh Barirani; along with footage of art openings and studio life.
Suffering from insomnia, disturbed loner Travis Bickle takes a job as a New York City cabbie, haunting the streets nightly, growing increasingly detached from reality as he dreams of cleaning up the filthy city.
An extended dream sequence presents a biblical allegory about the creation, downfall and rebirth of humanity, told through a series of surrealistic vignettes and musical numbers.
The title of Truth Through Mass Individuation references Carl Jung. An isolated figure is seen performing successively more aggressive actions — dropping a cymbal among a flock of pigeons, firing a rifle in a deserted city street.
