Jafar Panahi defies the ban and appears at a film festival, via Skype. And this is not even mentioning the fact that he has another film out, Closed Curtain, also defying the ban. I haven’t seen it yet. I cannot. WAIT. But his words are heart-wrenching: “I live in an absolute world of melancholy.” It is an outrageous situation.
If you’ve been reading my site for a while, then you know what this man means to me. He is a hero. A true revolutionary. Courageous.
