Haghighi Perturbed by Endless Political Queries

Mani Haghighi’s ‘Pig’ had its world premiere on February 21 at the 68th Berlin International Film Festival, Berlinale (February 15-25). The event was followed by a press conference in the presence of the director and film cast, where Haghighi was disconcerted at the reporters’ questions that dealt largely with issues unrelated to his film and focusing on the political atmosphere in Iran affecting his filmmaking.
“Every interview I do, it’s about ‘so what do reformers think of you?’, ‘What do the hardliners think about you?  ‘Have or have you not been censored?’, ‘How do you deal with censorship?’, fine!
