Sadly this movie is still banned by the cowardly or backward regimes of over 20 #Arab and #Muslim countries including #Turkey. It was released 5 yrs before #ArabSpring. It's loved by all those who started & continue to fight for the success of the Arab Spring ideals: #Freedom, #Democracy, Cultural #Diversity, #Equality, #Justice. Starring Shiva Rose David Raphael Moscow Callie Thorne Peter Van Wagner Alexander Blaise C. S. Lee Netflix: http://dvd.netflix.com/Movie/70074300...
