Looking at Radicalization through Film and New Media

with Filmmakers-in-Residence Maryam Ebrahimi and Hind Bensari

How have film and media portrayals about the radicalization process shaped the conversation around the world? Join us for a unique opportunity to examine this critical topic through discussion and clips from various media and film sources, including Maryam Ebrahimi’s work-in-progress documentary Stronger Than a Bullet, which reveals how Iran’s propaganda machine misused photographer Saeid Sadeghi’s images from the first Gulf War to help recruit a generation of martyrs. Sadeghi’s powerful photographs will be on view upstairs in the Jane Peck Gallery beginning the week of March 14.

This film is part of the Global Watch 2018: Crisis & Social Action series.
