Review of Laughing without an Accent

This is a beautiful piece, mainly because the main subject herself is incredibly engaging and enthusiastic. The editing is smooth and I love hearing the diary format. This piece gives a view of Iranian culture that many people may not be familiar with, but through the perspective of a longtime American. I'm putting this together with two other features on Muslim women -- "Lolita Unveiled" and "Reclaiming Islam" -- for an hour-long program.
