Cinema Museum of Iran is scheduled to screen a lineup of children’s classics of Iranian cinema on the occasion of National Children’s Week.

The screening sessions will be launched during a special program next week arranged in collaboration with the Institute for Intellectual Development of Children and Young Adults (IIDCYA).

A batch of six movies produced by the IIDCYA will go on screen during a six-day showcase starting from Saturday until October 11, 2019.

The lineup includes ‘The Water Urn’ (1992) by Ebrahim Foruzesh, ‘The Runner’ (1984) and ‘Harmonica’ (1974) by Amir Naderi, and ‘Redemption’ (1971) by Nasser Taqvai.

Bahram Beizai’s films ‘Uncle Moustache’ (1970) and ‘The Passengers’ (1991) are also among the lineup.

Cinema Museum of Iran was launched in September 1994, aiming to collect, safeguard, record and provide a proper presentation of the Iranian cinematic heritage.
