‘Leather Jacket Man’ to vie at Fajr fest

Iranian movie ‘Leather Jacket Man’ has been set to take part in the 2023 Fajr International Film Festival (FIFF).

Directed by Hossein Mirzamohammadi, produced by Kamran Hejazi, and starring Javad Ezzati, the film will compete at the 41th edition of the FIFF.

“Sometimes, you have to choose dying when you are wondering to choose between staying and leaving,” a tagline for the movie reads.

Besides Ezzati, Saber Abar, Gelareh Abbasi, Pantea Panahiha, Setareh Pesyani, Abbas Jamshidifar, Maedeh Tahmasebi and Roya Teymourian are the most notable among the cast members of the flick.

This year, the domestic and international versions of the FIFF will be once again held as part of one event titled “Fajr International Film Festival” after five editions of separate versions.

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

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

Supervised by Iran’s Ministry of Culture, the festival hosts veteran directors and new filmmakers from Iran and across the world every year.

The 41st edition of the FIFF will take place on February 1-10, 2023.
