Iran’s ‘Botox’ to vie at Tirana filmfest

Iranian movie ‘Botox’ has been scheduled to compete at the Tirana International Film Festival in Albania.

Directed by Kaveh Mazaheri, the film will represent Iran at the 19th edition of the Oscar-qualifying event.

‘Botox’ 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.

Established in 2003, the Tirana International Film Festival is a cultural event that aims to create a friendly space for cineastes to come together and share experiences.

The 2021 edition of the event will be held on September 24-30.

‘The Doll’ directed by Elaheh Esmaeeli is the other representative of Iran at this edition of the Albanian event.

Iranian short films ‘Exam’ by Sonia Haddad and ‘Talker’ by Mehrshad Ranjbar won awards at the 2020 edition of the Tirana fest.
