Muhammad Nourizad is a documentary filmmaker imprisoned in Iran, for “spreading propaganda against the government” and insulting Iran’s leaders. Iranian opposition websites have recently reported that Nourizad’s health is failing and he has been hospitalized. He also started a hunger strike last week.
