Six young men and women, who were arrested and detained in Tehran for making a video in which they danced to Pharrell William’’s hit song “Happy”.
The description originally accompanying the video stated: “People of Tehran are happy! Watch and share our happiness! … We wish happiness for all the people around the world…. “Happy” was an excuse to be happy…Hope it brings a smile on your face.” Apparently this is now a subversive message in Iran.
