Iran doc to vie at UK

The London Lift-Off Film Festival is slated to host Iranian documentary ‘Vayeh’. 

The film, directed by Foroozan Javidi, is to vie at the 2021 edition of the British festival. 

The 16-minute doc is a story of the efforts of a girl named Fariba, a resident of a remote village in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad Province, who does not give up trying to continue her education due to the lack of educational space in the village. 

The London Lift-Off Film Festival started back in 2010 from a small cinema in North West London and grew up to the prestigious and beautiful screening rooms of Soho and West London. 

The event has entertained and stunned audiences with its continuous delivery of exceptional works, amazing networking vibe and brilliant press coverage. 

This year’s edition of the event is slated for December 1-30, 2021.
