Kambiz Dirbaz cast as ‘Cleverest Sniper’

Iranian actor Kambiz Dirbaz has been cast in Ali Ghaffari’s upcoming film as real-life martyr Abdulrasul Zarrin, who was known as the cleverest sniper in modern wars and during Iraq’s imposed war on Iran.

‘Hunting of the Hunter’ has begun shooting after three months of preparations with the production team seeking to submit it to the 39th Fajr International Film Festival in Iran.

‘Hunting of the Hunter’ is about Zarrin, who was known for his pinpoint accuracy. He has inflicted heavy casualties on the Iraqi forces during an imposed war waged by Iraq’s former dictator Saddam Hussein and supported by some Western and regional states.

Zarrin was martyred during Kheibar Operation in 1984.

The 1980-88 war is commemorated in Iran every year as the eight years of Sacred Defense.

Kambiz Dirbaz, 45, began his career on stage in 1997. He made his debut in the 1999 film 'Waiting Girls'.

He has appeared in several TV series such as 'Cold Fever', 'Paridokht', 'No Pain, No Gain', 'In the Eye of the Storm' and 'Michael', which were aired on ifilm TV channel.

Dirbaz has also taken part in a number of movies, including 'The Outcasts' and 'Ash and Snow'.
