BLOOR HOT DOCS CINEMA: A DRESS REHEARSAL FOR AN EXECUTION
Official Selection, Hot Docs 2014
Director Bahman Tavoosi recreates the Pulitzer prize-winning photograph of political prisoner executions in post-revolution Iran which was so powerful it prompted the photographer to hide his identity for 27 years. His re-emergence prompted Bahman Tavoosi to recreate the photo using actors. In French, with English subtitles.
Director Bahman Tavoosi and Amnesty International Canada Board member Renee Saviour will participate in a post-screening Q&A.
Co-presented by Amnesty International.
