Admirable grounding for most artists around the world

by Marjan Zahed Kindersley on

 It does remind me, loosely, of Harold Pinter's Nobel Prize winning speech about duty's of citizens, including artists.

 

If someone can, please, (I would, but I would botch it up) translate this.

 

The video is quite a few days old and I see that Darius Kadivar has already written about arrests.

Aghdashloo with O'reilly on Iranian election

by Anony (not verified) on

Sadly O'reilly comes across more sympathetic towards Iranians than Shohreh does.

Shame on Shohreh for wasting such a good opportunity when given the forum. She backstabbed partriotic Iranians with her comments. I had much higher expectations from this lady.

Rakhshan Bani-Etemad is an internationally renounced film-maker and a patriot, vociferous in her opposition to military attack on Iran.  I agree she is a lady to be proud of. 

خاک بر سر اونهایی که قدر چنین انسانهای ارزشمند و ایراندوستی را نمی شناسن و اونا  رو با آتش جهالت خودشون می سوزونن
