They Shoot Kolbars, Don't They?
A new documentary shedding light on poverty and discrimination in one of #Iran's most remote and little-understood regions. Filming kolbars, or #Kurdish border couriers, who carry goods across the mountainous Iran-Iraq border is officially illegal in the Islamic Republic because of the brutality they face on the way. This film by Kurdish director Jamshid Bahrami and IranWire tells the remarkable stories of these people in their own words.
