Thank you for a most successful event at the First Unitarian Congregation of Ottawa on May 20, where there was a “sneak preview” of the short documentary on Hassan’s case, directed by filmmaker Amar Wala.

At the event, Donald Bayne, Hassan’s Canadian lawyer, was guest speaker; Baraa Arar presented some of her own powerful poems; and Hassan’s wife, Rania, spoke from the heart. It was heartwarming to see the outpouring of support for Hassan.

Here’s a video of the presentation by Mr. Donald Bayne:
