The Glass House and Omid e Mehr foundation


I was so shocked with this movie tonight at BAM that I posted this. This is just a trailer and doesn't tell much about how bad those girls' situation is. If you interested, please visit the link below and listen to the story of Leila.

It's frustrating that I do little to fix this injustice by posting the blog but I cannot help saying there is voice need to be heard in Iran.

After the movie, director Hamid Rahmanian and Melissa Hibbard answered some questions. They said that the day-care center was working with Iranian authority and the words about the place are getting spread among girls in Teheran. I hope they take care of more girls and eventually change the society. Although I feel powerless regarding this problem, I know this is what I could do now to help them.
