The Mourning Mothers of LALEH

A report on an Iranian women's movement called the Mourning Mothers. These Mothers whose sons or daughters were killed or jailed by the Iranian regime during and after the protests against the disputed Presidential elections of 2009, have formed a group that has been gathering in Parks around the world as well as Iran demanding justice and a stop to the continued violence, arrests, death and disappearances of their children. The Iranian regime continues to brutally attack the protesters and imprison them.
