Beverly Hills -
A great opportunity for student filmmakers comes from an organization that knows movies - The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences (AMPAS).

On the heels of The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences lawsuit of an Illinois-based company, they have announced an event involving copyright issues.

Last September, over 100 famous Hollywood filmmakers signed a petition for Roman Polanski within 24 hours of his arrest on a 31-year-old L.A. warrant for child rape. Yet equally famed director Jafar Panahi rots in a crypt in Evin prison to dead silence.

AMPAS is launching a week-long series on Iranian film to be hosted at UCLA and the Academy's Linwood Dunn Theater. Guests include ten Iranian film artists now in L.A. Among them is actress Fatemeh Motamed-Aria, who was reported to be blacklisted in Iran

Media coverage of Roxana Saberi seems scarce, given her dire straits. Yet Roxana is practically up on billboards compared to Show Biz Press coverage of the historic Team Oscar trip to Iran. Now that's gold-plated PR silence you can't buy! Or can you?

Whether you know it or not, there are actually two genocides going on in the world. The first, in Sudan, is heinous and brutal in ways that exceed even Hitler's and still does today. The second, even more ruthless in some ways, remains a closet case. Why?
