‘Botox’ to vie at Amman filmfest

Iranian movie ‘Botox’ is slated to vie at the Amman International Film Festival – Awal Film (AIFF) in Jordan. 

In its 7th international appearance, the film will be screened at the main competition section of the 2021 edition of the festival.

Kaveh Mazaheri’s film is about Akram and Azar, two siblings who have lied to everyone about their brother’s disappearance. They have told others that he fled to Germany and that they have no news of him.

Gradually, the lie turns into reality in Akram’s mind. She starts to count the days for her brother to come back.

Sousan Parvar, Mahdokht Molaee, Soroush Saeedi, Morteza Khanjani and Mohsen Kiani are among the cast members of the flick.

The Amman International Film Festival showcases Arab and international movies with the aim to “develop and promote an Arab cinema that reflects the creativity of the region and tackles the issues that are prevalent today”.

This year’s edition of the event is scheduled for August 23 – 31.
