The Iranian

This soldier was 17-years old when he lapsed into a coma on June 5, 1986 during the Iran-Iraq war. He was struck by a shockwave from an explosion in Khorramshahr, near the Iraqi border. He has been unconscious ever since. His mother and father fight to keep him alive.

Omid Salehi, Javad Montazeri and Peyman Hooshmandzadeh are founders of 135 PHOTOS, a photo agency in Tehran.
