Bringing Bahá’í History to Life with Nava Sarracino
Season 14
Episode 11
Nava Sarracino has performed in plays all over Alaska and is certainly no stranger to theater. But this show hits personally for Sarracino, as she prepares to play the role of Rouhi Jahanpour. A woman who was imprisoned by the Iranian Government back in 1983. Being Bahai herself, Sarracino relates to this story deeply, and to those whose lives were lost during the Islamic Revolution.
