One night in Teheran we were invited by Farahmand's parents to their
place, together with Forough and Sadraa. Of course, the food was
really delicious. The mother had prepared yummy dishes: soups,
salads, meat with vegetables, rice (white and yellow), and much more!
Apart from the food, it probably was the most moving moment of the
trip. We brought Farahmand's greetings to his parents and his
sister, whom he was not being allowed to see for many years, and we
told them about their son's and brother's life in Torino. At one
point everyone was crying.
The regime can persecute people fighting for freedom, torturing them
in prison or sending them away. But they can not prevent freedom
ideas from spreading, and people from talking (and becoming aware).
And that dinner was a proof of that. Thanks to the dramatic and
courageous choice of Farahmand.
