Dearly loved Friends,

Invitation to screening of “To Light a Candle” – 22nd of April 2016

We are writing to you to seek your support for another screening of To Light a Candle which is being held this Friday evening at the Frontline Club.

The Education is not a Crime campaign (http://educationisnotacrime.de/) will host the screening, followed by a discussion of the film with journalist Maziar Bahari – author of Then They Came for Me, and the subject of Jon Stewart’s 2014 film Rosewater – about the Baha’is of Iran and their peaceful response to decades of state-sponsored persecution. Maziar will be joined in discussion by Padideh Sabeti, a representative of the UK Baha’i community, as well (by Skype) the sister of a recently-arrested Iranian Baha’i.

Maziar, who is himself not a Baha’i, will also discuss the global Not A Crime street art campaign to defend the human rights of all Iranians.

Please join us for this highly topical event on April 22nd from 7 – 9:30pm, The Frontline Club – 13 Norfolk Place, W2 1QJ London, United Kingdom.

With loving Bahá’í greetings,
