URGENT!!! PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION TO FREE IRANIAN FILMMAKER JAFAR PANAHI BEING HELD BY IRANIAN SECURITY FORCES about 2 years ago

The petition to cancel Cannes 2010 awards has collected 247 signatures by now, including those of film critics like Bill Khron and Jonathan Rosembaum. It is important to send it to as many people as possible until tomorrow.

There’s a comment on the petition signed by F.X. Feeney which translates perfectly this call for …action, and I’d like to share it with you:
“A dramatic gesture is in order. Awards can be directed to their winners silently — for after all, ceremonies & speeches are generally forgotten. Actions are remembered. Cinema is based on this truth.
Long live Jafar Panahi.”
