L’Ombre de la Terre, Talaiye, near the Iraq border, 23 March, 2008. Every March, for the new year, hundreds of thousands of Iranian people visit the many frontlines of the war against Iraq. This trip through the whole country, called Rahian-e Noor or the Caravan of Light, is for people who may have lost someone to pay their respects at places where fighting occurred. This shot was taken by Abbas Kiarostami, the acclaimed Iranian film-maker who died in 2016. (Photo by Abbas Kiarostami/The Guardian)
