Nicholas Mihm Director Interview | 'Bubjan' Dreaming of a Free Society in Iran

Nicholas Mihm Director Interview | 'Bubjan' Dreaming of a Free Society in Iran Inspired by hours of in-depth interviews by Executive Producer, Brandon Stanton of Humans of New York, “Bubjan” is told from the perspective of Parwiz and his eldest son, Abarmard Maziar. Bubjan is also executive produced by Parwiz's grandson, Rostam Zafari. Rostam has long nurtured a dream to bring this inspirational story to life, a story that has resonated with him since his formative years. Stanton has supported the release of the film by uploading a series of 54 posts on HONY’s prominent social media account, starting on September 10, 2023.    This film also carries special significance as during its filming, the world lost Jina “Mahsa” Amini. As most already know, Mahsa was arrested by Iran's morality police for what they deemed "improper" hijab attire, and she endured severe beatings and tragically passed away while in police custody. Parwiz Zafari’s words, shared in these interviews, echo profoundly – his yearning for Iranians to unite and liberate their nation. Parwiz has held on to the belief that Iran will one day become a free country, and he holds hope that a new generation will carry the torch towards a brighter future for his homeland. As we unveil "Bubjan”, Mahsa Amini’s impact reverberates stronger than ever, fueling a movement that refuses to be silenced.   Connect with us on our website for more amazing conversations! www.brettallanshow.com Got some feedback?
