Mr. Ziaollah Motearefi a Baha'i resident of Semnan who owned and developed 50 hectares of agricultural and livestock land including eighteen thousand trees, all these have been confiscated. The “Kavir-e Sabz [Green Desert]” is a documentary about the efforts of this Baha'i citizen who has over years by paying large sums of his capital turned the desert into green land. He has worked in the heart of the desert for many years to cultivate the land, raise livestock, fish farm and provide other services. After many years of hard work all his capital and efforts were taken away from him because of his belief in the Baha'i Faith. It is very heart rendering to hear his heartache.
