A MIGHTY HEART
Starring Angelina Jolie, Irfan Khan, and Archie Panjabi
Opens Nationwide on June 22

In the 5 years since Daniel Pearl’s death, nearly 230 journalists have been killed in the line of duty.

On January 23, 2002, Mariane Pearl’s world changed forever. Her husband Daniel, the South Asia Bureau chief for the Wall Street Journal, was researching a story on shoe bomber Richard Reid. The story drew them to Karachi where a go-between had promised access to an elusive source. As Danny left for the meeting, he told Mariane he might be late for dinner. He never returned.

"In his work, Danny struggled to keep free of dogma and alliance. He didn’t represent a country or a flag, just the pursuit of truth. He was there to hold up a mirror and force people to look at themselves. What better way is there to respect humanity?" – Mariane Pearl

A MIGHTY HEART opens in theaters across North America on June 22. For additional information on this film and to watch the trailer, visit: http://www.amightyheartmovie.com/
