If Schweizer is exposing coruption in government this one is reach.

Headline: Breaking Bombshell: Elizabeth Warren’s Son-in-Law Produced Film Funded by Iranian Government.

Democrat presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s (D-MA) son-in-law, with whom she is close,
has troubling ties to the Iranian regime, according to a new book by Peter Schweizer.
Tyagi runs Tricolor Films, and in 2008, produced a film called The Song of Sparrows, directed by
Iranian filmmaker Majid Majidi.

The film was described as Majidi’s “most religious” and is about a man who is fired from his job
on an ostrich farm, moves to the big city and becomes a motorcycle taxi driver, and soon becomes
consumed with his passengers’ lives and is swept up in a world of greed. It is his family that help
him restore his “caring and generous nature,” according to a film synopsis.

Tyagi was listed as the film’s sole producer on a New York Times page, in credits which have now
been deleted. A look back at the page’s archive revealed that the film was funded by the Iranian
government agency that is overseen by Iranian propagandists.

Call me naive but making a film about an ostrich farmer turned motorcycle taxi driver hardy falls
into the catagory of corruption.

I seriously doubt it was a box office bonanza for Iran. popcorn-eatinggif

Hey. anybody named Majid Majidi can't be all bad.

Where can I apply for a job as an ostrich farmer? Does it pay big bucks? Maybe I could sell giant eggs to all the breakfast joints around here.
