In a column, K.T. Maran takes note of the Los Angeles premier of The Gardener, a new film by Iranian filmmaker Mohsen Makhmalbaf, which explores the teachings of the Baha’i Faith and the power of religion. K.T. Maran notes also that Mr. Makhmalbaf recently received an award for the film in Croatia, and that he dedicated that award to “all the 130 Baha’i prisoners who are in Iran’s political prisons only because they have adopted a different religion or because they have taught Baha’i youth at their homes while the government of Iran has deprived these youth from entering Iranian universities.”
