The final installment for iFilm English TV’s series ‘Thousands of Eyes’ has been set to hit the air on Saturday.

The final episode of the series, produced by Mohammad Masoud and directed by Kianoush Ayyari, will be aired on December 21, 2024, at 21:00 GMT.

It will be repeated the next day at 02:00, 06:00 and 13:00.

‘Thousands of Eyes’ tells the story of a famous blind psychologist, Ravandi, who also has a regular advice column in a magazine.

People from all across Iran write to him with their problems hoping he can guide them in the right path. Each episode of the series focuses on one of their stories.

The first is a tale of envy between neighbors living at the opposite ends of the economic divide. When a poor family is asked by their wealthy neighbors to look after their home while they vacation abroad, it's an opportunity to glimpse at how the other half lives, but it also leads to mischief.

The second story focuses on two life-long friends who are also business partners. When disputes about how to run their business escalate into overblown grudge match, it threatens to ruin the lives of their two children who plan on marrying each other.

The third is the story of a young woman whose best friend's brother is handicapped. When he misconstrues her kindness for love, she finds herself in a sticky situation.

The fourth story is about a family living on a tight budget. When the landlord raises the rent, the entire family has to squeeze their budget even tighter to be able to make ends meet.

The fifth story is about an actor who's quit smoking. When his latest role is that of a smoker, and the director insists on it, he finds himself in a difficult situation.

And the final story is about a divorced man who supports his ex-wife and mother who lives alone. When his brother and his married daughter both separately tell him they're in urgent need of money, the man finds himself being stretched to the limit.

The cast list of the series includes Saeed Pirdoust, Hamideh Kheirabadi, Kaveh Sammak-Bashi, Behnoush Bakhtiyari, Mehdi Hashemi, Mohsen Qazi-Moradi, Amir-Hossein Seddiq, Mehdi Fathi, Akram Mohammadi, Afsaneh Nasseri, and Nadia Deldar-Golchin.

‘Thousands of Eyes’, produced in 2001, will be replaced by ‘Hodhod Bookstore’ made by Marzieh Boroumand.
