Jon Stewart’s directorial debut Rosewater deftly mixed politics, humanity, and humor in telling the story of Maziar Bahari, who was held in an Iranian prison for 118 days after he was falsely implicated in Iranian election protests.
This compelling featurette anchored Trailer Park Content’s theatrical marketing campaign, and served as a prelude to a series of shorter, topical featurettes.
These featurette introduced viewers to the powerful true story of journalist Maziar Bahari’s imprisonment, and how his appearance in a 2009 Daily Show segment played a surprising part in his arrest.
