Using interviews, personal stories, and archival footage – often smuggled out of Iran at great personal risk – the film, titled To Light a Candle, highlights the constructive resilience of Iran's young Baha'is who, in the face of systematic attempts by the Iranian regime to bar them from higher education, developed an informal arrangement known as the Baha'i Institute of Higher Education (BIHE), through which they could have access to university-level courses.

I'm hopeful that this film will help educate people about the denial of rights of the Baha'i minority in Iran.
