Filmmakers Discuss Their Documentary "Nasrin"

Political prisoner Nasrin Sotoudeh is a world-renowned human rights lawyer who defends women, children, and those seeking freedom. Global outcry was raised last year when her husband told the world she'd been sentenced to 38 years in prison and 148 lashes. Her fight for justice is the subject of a new documentary four years in the making. The creators join the show to discuss Sotoudeh's mission.
