Bubjan
“Bubjan” tells the inspiring story of Parwiz Zafari, a former member of the Iranian parliament who dedicated his life to creating a progressive, modern, and free Iranian society. Following the Islamic Revolution of 1979, Zafari was forced into exile, but his vision for a free Iran has never wavered. In 2023, he was featured on Humans of New York, alongside his short film Bubjan, sharing his hope that the next generation will continue to carry the unrelenting torch of freedom he’s carried for decades, where he expressed his hope that future generations will continue to carry his enduring dream of freedom.
