A Different Iranian View of the Holocaust - Enriched Iranium

In Iran the holy month of Ramadan is airtime for the the most promising TV-series. Last year’s hit, Madar-e Sefr Daraje (Zero Degree Turn) portrays the Jewish plight during World War II. During the course of the series’ 22 episodes Habib Parsa travels to Paris for his studies, falls in love with a Jewish woman, then helps her and her family to escape Nazi-occupied France. Although Parsa’s character is fictitious, it is based on the life of Iranian diplomat Abdul Hussein Sardari, sometimes referred to as the ‘Iranian Schindler.’ In the 1940’s Sardari rescued some 500 Jews from persecution by forging Iranian passports and sending them to Iran.
