Check out two of our films currently running on Jaman:
“Chahinaz brings a fresh and intelligent view to the condition of women in the developed and less developed world.” — Filmmakers.com
“…a film focusing on women’s’ rights in Algeria and an excellent example of documentary film content’s ability to inform the public on important global issues.” — Bree Bowman, Center for Social Media blog
“A terrifying glimpse of the underbelly of Iranian society, where two people in desperate poverty are about to sell their kidneys through one of many state-sanctioned kidney agencies.” — The List, UK
Iranian Kidney Bargain Sale was awarded the prestigious Gold Nymph as Best News Documentary at the 47th Monte-Carlo Television Festival, (Monaco), 10 - 14 June 2007
