In the early 1970s, the “Tehran International Film Festival” was held as the first film festival for short and feature 8 and 16-mm amateur movies. It was held around the country under the title of “Provincial Youth Cinema Film Festival”.
Organized by Iranian Youth Cinema Society (IYCS), the event is held to provide an opportunity for young filmmakers to exchange their experiences.
The organizers plan to promote the festival and introduce its activities to the world through increased interactions with foreign short film markets and filmmakers.
