His case is very sad, its a shame that despite the movie nobody is doing anything to help him

He has lived inside airport for 16 years and his surreal existence has inspired Steven Spielberg's new blockbuster 'The Terminal,' starring Tom Hanks. Picture taken August 6, 2004.

He is, in my opinion, a symbol of Iranians in exile. I emphasize Iranians because many lost interest in Iran long ago. He is not their symbol. He represents those living in limbo.
