Around 17,000 US visas have been issued to Afghan translators plus around 10,000 for relatives with as many still dangerously left behind after troops pulled out. At the peak, the Taliban were killing a translator every day.
A fictional movie about an Afghan translator, Fremont was actually filmed in Fremont, California and other Bay Area locations including San Jose, and Centerville.
The song Diamond Day sung in the movie and in the closing credits is from unusual artist Jennifer Vashti Bunyan (Vashti being an Iranian Persian goddess- the films writer and director being Iranian), who was a popular English folk singer in the 60's, then forgotten, and with a cult following into the new millenium.
In the final scenes the movie is simply dedicated to Marjaneh, not the province of Iran, but Marjaneh Moghimi, a producer who had worked on the film from its first inception, but she sadly died pre-production before filming commenced.
Co-writer Babak Jilali is actually Iranian, not an Afghan. He crafted his gum skills in the UK.
