Bangladesh awards Iran director

Iranian director Maryam Bahrololoumi has received an award at the Dhaka International Film Festival (DIFF) in Bangladesh.

The director grabbed the best filmmaker award for her latest directorial experience ‘Lady of the City’.

‘Lady of the City’ is a social drama telling the story of a family dealing with an unspecified challenge.

“One of the worst punishments is to imprison yourself forever in the middle of an unintentional mistake or wrong wish, as if you have no way forward, no way back, and no place to stay and no place to go,” a synopsis of the movie reads.

The cast list of the movie includes Freshteh Sadr-Orafaee, Behnaz Jafari, Gelareh Abbasi, Saman Saffari, Mohammad Valizadegan, Ali Kian-Ersi, Tarannom Kazemi, Behrang Alavi, and Yousef Teymouri.

‘Lady of the City’ went on screen at some global events, including the Golden Apricot Yerevan International Film Festival in Armenia.

Bahrololoumi was the recipient of Best First Film Director award at the 36th Fajr Film Festival for directing ‘Patio’.

The Dhaka International Film Festival is one of the most prestigious film events in Bangladesh.

The 20th edition of the DIFF will take place on January 15-23, 2022.
