DESCRIPTION:The Iranian Student Association of UC Berkeley\npresents the inspiring 
 international documentary that remembers\nW H E N   C O M P A S S I O N   T 
 R I U M P H E D.\n\nIn 2003 an earthquake of 6.6 magnitude struck the city 
 of Bam in Iran, killing and injuring tens of thousands of residents and two 
 American tourists. The massive tremor destroyed nearly all of the beautiful 
 ancient city of Silk Road fame. But it failed to shake the local tradition 
 of hospitality to travelers. Relying on interviews that shatter common 
 assumptions, the hour-long "Bam 6.6" follows the experiences of Adele 
 Freedman, a Jewish American woman who was vacationing in Bam with her 
 fiancé, Tobb Dell'Oro, when the earthquake struck. Adele, who had to 
 face Tobb's tragic death alone halfway around the world, found unexpected 
 comfort when the Iranians around her reached out spontaneously and made her 
 recovery a priority. Without narration, the film interweaves Adele's ordeal 
 with the grief and open-mindedness of other survivors, emergency 
 volunteers, medical professionals, and U.S. rescue and aid teams. Previous 
 screenings have included the 2007 United Nations Association Film Festival 
 and the Washington National Cathedral.\n\nThe producer/director, Jahangir 
 Golestanparast, will answer questions from the audience 8 to 9 pm. \n
