VIDEO: Film Documentary Streaming Iranium - Protecting The Iranian People
The importance of film industry, in the context of human rights and world affairs cannot be overstated. In January, Artist H-II: Stephen Michael Apatow, Founder of Humanitarian Resource Institute and the United Nations Arts Initiative communicated his support of the National Society of Film Critics Statement On Jailed Iranian Directors.
The case against war crimes and crimes against humanity in Iran has been framed and evidence collected, yet the Iranian people have been abandoned for upwards of 30 years. It is time for the international community to stand behind and protect the people of Iran as they pursue freedom and democracy in the new Middle East.
