A film documentary was shown at the Angelika Film Center in Dallas on February 12th called Changing the World, One Wall At a Time. The film seeks to bring awareness to the general public about the denial of higher education to Baha’is in Iran due to their religious beliefs. This course of action is done through the creation of powerful images of artistic murals that was painted in the public spaces of major cities from around the world. This campaign was started by journalist and filmmaker Maziar Bahari. The film features murals that were created in the United Kingdom, South Africa, Brazil, Australia, India, and Harlem.
“We’re connecting different communities that have had to overcome discrimination and education inequity,” says Saleem Vaillancourt, co-producer of the film.”
