A Prison Story Iran

By: Mehri Dadgar

Narrated by: Ekaterina Pokras

"A Prison Story - Iran," tells a compelling story of a young woman arrested on a Tehran street for distributing pro-democracy literature in 1981. It reveals the workings of a despotic regime in suppressing voices of reason and consolidating power. For standing up for a free society, she and her generation offer their lives, embracing death. They enter Iran's politically dangerous system and endure physical and psychological brutality that deeply wounds their sense of self.

"A Prison Story - Iran," is a reason for love that enriches life. Honorable souls cannot abide by the rules of Satan's Kingdom, and ultimately, hope and dreams for peace and happiness win as always.

Forgiveness and triumph of love and faith over horror and hate.

My admiration and love for Mehri has exploded after reading and listening to her story of survival. Her growth in spite of everything men and evil tried to do to break her spirit is an example few of us could hope to attain. It is a question I ask myself after knowing what she endured for democracy, faith, and life. How hard would I fight?
