Title: The Iran Job
Post by: timmm on October 23, 2012, 01:19:01 PM
Hellos!
Just wanted to give folks a heads up that The Iran Job is opening Friday the 26th and will be with us for one week only. Screens at 3:30 and 5:20 every day. The subject of the film, Kevin Sheppard, is a former J.U. Basketball player. Synopsis below.

Thx,
Tim

Charismatic American athlete Kevin Sheppard travels to Iran to play basketball, and gradually overcomes his many preconceived notions about the Islamic nation while experiencing the generosity of his benevolent hosts, and connecting with three outspoken women who offer their own candid opinions on religion and politics. Meanwhile, as basketball season draws to a close, Iran's reformist Green Movement rises up, only to be suppressed by the powers that be in the run-up to the Arab Spring.
