Deg Wellspring is long gone. A lot of their stuff expired and went back to
the producer but it is possible this one is still under contract. What
remains of Wellspring is owned by Weinstein. You can try to reach them
directly but in theory if they had it Swank would have rights. I would try
asking Swank to contact Weinstein and make sure they get a definitive
answer or contact them yourself.

If all of that fails email me and I will call in a favor and get you the
directors contact info. Someone I am working with knows literally all the
major Iranian directors and deals with them on a regular basis.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues 
relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, 
preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and 
related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective 
working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication 
between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and 
distributors.
