Presents:
Bam 6.6: A Documentary
by Jahangir Golestan-Parast
Bam 6.6 is the story of the human
condition. The film weaves together stories of survival, loss, and healing, as
we explore the humanity of the Iranian people through the prism of the
devastating 2003 earthquake that struck at the heart of Bam, an ancient Iranian
village. Our subjects come from different walks of life- an American
woman, an American businessman, and the Iranian residents of Bam.
Through their experiences, we will
witness how a natural disaster can overcome religious and political barriers,
dispel stereotypes, and unite disparate members of the human
family.
This event is Free and open to the
public. A Q&A panel with the Film Producer and Director will follow the
film screening.
The event is cosponsored by Hamid and
Christina Moghadam Program in Iranian Studies, the Billie Achilles fund and
Graduate Student Council.
