Iranian-American filmmaker Hossein Keshavarzs directorial debut, Dog Sweat, has won recognition at world film festivals, but it will never be seen in his homeland.Thats because the tale of rebellious youth was shot underground in Iran with Keshavarz stealing scenes in public places, filming in private homes, then placing his film on a computer hard drive, putting it in a backpack and leaving the country.
