Neda



Neda died a year ago this Sunday. And here is the life-risking documentary, for all involved, filmed inside Iran for HBO.

The day before she died the Basiji told her to stay home as the men aim for the most beautiful women because they're the most dangerous to them. In a country where the government uses martyrdom to rally its people behind its cause, that martyrdom was turned against itself in Neda.
