Manoto TV turns its cameras toward one of Iranian cinema's most recognizable leading men in this 2022 documentary special built entirely around the films of Behrouz Vossoughi.
What is Tunnel Zaman Sattar about?
Running a full two hours, this documentary special gathers material connected to actor Behrouz Vossoughi's body of film work into a single retrospective broadcast. Rather than following a single narrative thread, it is structured as an extended survey program, the kind of long-form special that broadcasters put together to look back across a career rather than tell one contained story. The title translates loosely as a tunnel through time, framing the program as a journey back through decades of film work associated with its subject. Viewers coming to this expecting a conventional biopic should know upfront that it is a broadcast retrospective rather than a scripted drama.
About the cast
Behrouz Vossoughi is the central figure around whom the entire special is organized, with the program built from material tied to his screen work rather than a traditional dramatized cast. No other performers are credited alongside him for this production.
Context & significance
The special was produced under the Manoto TV banner, a UK-based broadcaster known for long-form entertainment and retrospective programming aimed at Persian-speaking audiences abroad. Categorized simply as a Documentary, it runs two hours and carries a 2022 release year in K-Time's catalogue. Programs of this type typically compile interviews, archival material, and career overviews rather than following a conventional plot, so it sits closer to televised film journalism than to narrative cinema.
