Kamran Shirdel's 1964 diploma film at the Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia of Rome unfolds in an urban apartment with a despondent man, who appears to be an artist or a writer, contemplating his existence through mirrors set about the room. Featuring the music of Anton Webern's Six Pieces for Orchestra Opus 6, the film has no dialogue. Gli Specchi, also known as The Mirrors, was made in the same period that saw Shirdel working as an assistant director for John Huston on The Bible and it went on to win the diploma of honor in the World Cinema School Film Festival in Tokyo in 1965.
