We encourage Auckland WIFT members to attend the Amnesty International white ribbon event in support of persecuted Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi this weekend. It will be hosted by Rialto Cinemas, Broadway, starting from 8pm. No need to RSVP to our office - just arrive on the night and collect your white ribbon from the stall table to guarantee getting a seat.
There will be representatives from the organisations involved speaking before the screening, including Iranian film director Faramarz Beheshti.
