The Iran Job is a Must See Documentary



 I came across the Iran Job while watching Late Night with Carson Daly and I immediately put the film on my must see list.

The documentary follows Kevin Sheppard, a basketball player from the U.S. Virgin Island as he takes his pro career to Iran in the 2008-2009 season playing for A.S. Shira.

 The films not only deals ups and downs Sheppard's basketball season, but also Iranian politics, which was going through an upheaval at the time.

However, the heart of the movie is the friendship between Sheppard and three educated, thought provoking Iranian women, Hilda, Laleh, and especially Elaheh, who not only bears a striking resemblance to Kim Kardashian, but also develops feelings for Sheppard.

 If The Iran Job comes to theater near you check it out, if not make sure you see it when it on demand or your local Redbox.
