Steps toward Democracy
A dancefilm inspired by the story of how Mousavi, the Iranian opposition candidate intends to take part in the friday prayer despite the personal risk of public appearance. The article is entitled "Mousavi has become too strong for the regime" and can be found here: http://www.aftenposten.no/nyheter/uriks/article3172249.ece
I find it fascinating that the act of prayer can be a symbol of non-violent strength. The title of the film is "Steps toward democracy" and refers to how symbolic actions can become a movement towards change.
