By Reza Baraheni
Set in a brutal imperial court where power is measured in blood, The Infernal Times of Mr. Ayaz follows the haunting confession of Ayaz, a young servant bound to Sultan Mahmud. The story opens with a public execution—an act of savage spectacle that exposes the cruelty ruling the land. As Ayaz recalls the dismemberment of a man named Mansour, his memories begin to unravel a deeper truth about his own life. Through fragmented flashbacks, Ayaz recounts the disappearance and death of his family: a murdered father, brothers hunted by the regime, and the tragic fate of his gentle brother Samad. Inside the palace, he carries a forbidden love for Kimia, a young woman forced to flee after a dangerous secret is revealed. Drawn back into the world outside the palace walls, Ayaz joins his surviving brothers on a desperate search for Samad — a journey that confronts him with the stark contrast between their struggle for freedom and his own entanglement in the court’s violence. Torn between blood ties and the oppressive sanctuary of the palace, Ayaz must face the truth of who he has become — and the dark bond that ties him irrevocably to the sultan.
