The Iran Job follows American basketball player Kevin Sheppard as he accepts a job to play in one of the world’s most feared countries: Iran. With tensions running high between Iran and
the West, Kevin tries to separate sports from politics only to find that politics is impossible to escape in Iran. Along the way he forms an unlikely alliance with three outspoken Iranian women. Thanks to these women, his apartment turns into an oasis of free
speech, where they discuss everything from politics to religion to gender roles.
A special reception and Q&A with producer Sara Nodjoumi will follow the film. Tickets are free and open to the public. Advanced registration is encouraged via the
museum’s program page.
