Iran: new BBC TV documentary on culture, media, tech now online

irandoc4958h.jpg This a documentary done by
Rageh Omaar, BBC's former correspondent in Iraq. He has visited Iran and has made this fair and beautiful documentary on many aspects of life in Iran.

"The full-length documentary, shown by BBC 4 recently, is now at Google Video

A descriptive blurb says "It took a year of wrangling to get permission to film inside Iran." The result looks pretty amazing.
