Synopsis
Spoiler shield
Through the eyes of Thomas Erdbrink, you see an Iran that is rarely featured in news reports. The first series was broadcast in 2015 and was also shown in seven short parts in The New York Times. In June 2015, 'Onze man' won the Silver Nipkow Disc, the award for the best television program, and in 2016 the journalistic award De Tegel. The second series (five episodes) was broadcast in April and May 2018.
