About “BAM 6.6”

In 2003 an earthquake of 6.6 magnitudes struck the city of Bam in Iran , killing and injuring tens of thousands of residents and two American tourists. The massive tremor destroyed nearly all of the beautiful ancient city of Silk Road fame. But it failed to shake the local tradition of hospitality to travelers. Relying on interviews that shatter common stereotypes, the hour-long Bam 6.6 follows the experiences of Adele Freedman, a Jewish New Yorker who was on vacation in Bam with her fiancé, Tobb Dell'Oro, when the earthquake struck. Adele, who had to face Tobb's tragic death alone halfway around the world, found unexpected comfort when the Iranians around her reached out spontaneously and made her recovery a priority. Previous screenings have included the 2007 UN Association Film Festival and the Washington National Cathedral.
