Fajr fest to screen 10 restored classic films

The 40th Fajr Film Festival is set to screen 10 restored versions of classic Iranian films.

The films will be screened in the upcoming edition of the FFF as part of the section “Lasting Frames”.

The ten movies include ‘The Scout’ by Ebrahim Hatamikia, ‘Where is the Friend's Home?’ by Abbas Kiarostami, Dariush Mehrjui’s ‘The Cow’, ‘Captain Khorshid’ by Nasser Taqvai and ‘Eagles’ by Samuel Khachikian.

They also include ‘Manuscripts’ by Mehrzad Minui, ‘Frosty Roads’ by Masoud Jafari Jozani, ‘The Last Act’ by Varuzh Karim-Masihi, Alireza Davoudnejad’s ‘Niaz’ and ‘Children of Heaven’ by Majid Majidi.

The 40th Fajr Film Festival will include two sections: cultural and competitive.

The 2022 edition of the event will be headed by Masoud Naqashzadeh, and take place on February 1-11.

The FFF coincides with the Ten-Day Fajr ceremonies across Iran, marking the anniversary of the 1979 Islamic Revolution.

An international version of the event will be held later in 2022.

Starting from 2023, the domestic and international versions of Fajr will be once again held as part of one event titled “Fajr International Film Festival”.

Since its establishment in 1982, the FFF has played a vital role in the development of Iranian Cinema.
