Iran filmfest calls for entries

The eighth edition of Ammar Popular Film Festival calls for entries.

Filmmakers have to send their works to the festival’s secretariat until November 16.

Ammar Popular Film Festival goes against promotion of “individualism and extreme enjoyment without caring about the society's troubles and other human suppression,” the event’s official website noted.

Ammar fest also enjoys an international version (AIPFF) which aims “to raise real awareness and responsibility among the general public,” the AIPFF website read, adding the event’s mission is to create an atmosphere in which independent filmmakers and thinkers can gather together.

The eighth edition of the festival is scheduled to be held on December 29, 2017- January 07, 2018 in Tehran.
