MAN OF INTEGRITY DIRECTOR COULD BE SENTENCED IN IRAN
I reported a few weeks back that Iranian director Mohammad Rasouluf had been detained in Iran after returning there from both the Telluride and Toronto Film Fests. Rasouluf has been screening his latest film, A Man of Integrity.
News came yesterday that the film maker could be sentenced by an Iranian court to six years in prison for"anti-regime propaganda". That's according to Al Arabiya. The complete article is linked here.
Rasoulof was detained on similar charges in 2010. Al Arabiya reported that Rasoulof was detained on his return to Iran on Sept. 15 and extensively interviewed by authorities on Oct. 3.
That's your MTFB for this Thursday. Have a great weekend and come back for more on Monday.
