Crisis in Faith:
Zoroastrians Today
On April 18, the Pluralism Project hosted a partial
screening and panel discussion of Tenaz Dubash's
documentary film,
Crisis in Faith: Zoroastrians Today, at
Harvard Divinity School. Crisis in Faith is a
personal journey about Tenaz's quest for the truth
around the controversies facing followers of her faith
today, focusing on the dwindling number of Zoroastrians
worldwide and the treatment of Zoroastrians as a
religious minority in Iran. The film was shot in Boston,
Chicago, Iran, India, New York, and Vancouver. Tenaz was
present for a panel discussion with scholars Dina
McIntyre (retired lawyer and member of the Zoroastrian
community), Dr. P. Oktor Skjaervo (Harvard University),
Dr. Nasswan Dossabhoy (Harvard Zoroastrian Association &
Endicott College) and Dr. Diana Eck (Harvard University
& The Pluralism Project). The event was co-sponsored by
the
Pluralism Project,
ZAGBA
(Zoroastrian Association of the Greater Boston Area),
and the
Zoroastrian Associations of Harvard and MIT.
