List of Persian/Iranian Events for 2008-07-07

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

I am writing you to invite you to the world premiere of my documentary, Arusi Persian Wedding which is a co-production with PBS and will be screening at a very exciting and thought provoking new film festival in Dubai called “Documentary Voices: Pulling Focus”.

The film will screen on the evening of JULY 7th, 2008 and the schedule will be released shortly on the website so please refer to the link for the exact time and location of the screening.

Please be sure to bring colleagues and friends with you and join me for the screening and a dialogue following the film about Iran/U.S. Relations.

In addition to my documentary, a dozen of other excellent films will be screening at the festival between July 5th and 8th. The focus of the festival is on Iran and the Middle East and this collective of filmmakers will pull international focus away from selective, “Western” views about the Middle East, to authentic stories about the region.

In this time of political turmoil throughout much of the world and especially within the Middle East, there should be some very interesting conversations about the current state of things and thoughts on how to move forward.

Please email if you have any additional questions. I look forward to sharing this experience with you!

Best,

Marjan Tehrani
