The Dawn is Too Far shares a multi-generational perspective of those who came as students, refugees, and exiles to the U.S., particularly in the context of 1979 Iranian Revolution. This film charts the longer history of Iranian Americans in the San Francisco Bay area and the ways they have been impacted and contributed to this region. The film screening will be followed by a discussion with Persis Karim (executive produce and co-director/co-producer). Karim is an Iranian- American writer, poet, and professor at San Francisco State University. This event is co-sponsored by the UCSB Iranian Studies Initiative.
