From UVDA, Israel's award-winning investigative current affairs programme, comes an extraordinary documentary from acclaimed journalist and filmmaker Itai Anghel, renowned for his fearless reporting from the world's most dangerous conflict zones. In Iran's Most Wanted, Anghel gains rare and unprecedented access to Paiman, a Kurdish-Iranian guerrilla commander leading PJAK, an armed resistance group fighting the Iranian regime. Reporting by foreign media from inside Iran is exceptionally rare, making Anghel's access to Paiman and her fighters deep within secret mountain tunnel networks all the more remarkable. Even more extraordinary is the timing: Anghel interviewed civilians in the Kurdish city of Rojava in north-eastern Syria, just days before it was invaded by ISIS, and those he interviewed were killed. As Paiman and her fighters live under constant threat, waging a dangerous campaign for freedom in Iran against one of the region's most powerful governments, Anghel captures a remarkable moment on the brink of seismic change. Through intimate encounters with fighters, civilians and those caught between opposing forces, he reveals a human reality too often hidden from view. Combining exceptional access, immersive storytelling and meticulous investigative reporting, Iran's Most Wanted is a powerful, deeply affecting documentary that exemplifies the very best of premium factual filmmaking.
