Fajr Film Festival to screen ‘Majan’

Iranian movie ‘Majan’ is scheduled to go on screen at the 35th edition of the Iran’s Fajr Film Festival (FFF).

The social drama, directed by Rahman Seifi-Azad, will be shown for the first time at the Iran Cinema Perspective section of the FFF.

The movie, produced by Mohammad-Mehdi Asgarpour and written by Leila Larijani, stars Mahtab Keramati and Farhad Aslani.

‘Majan’, meaning dear mom in some Iranian accents, is about a couple who have to deal with a challenge for their child.

Fajr Festivals are annually held in Iran during the Fajr Decade (literally meaning ten days of dawn) which marks the anniversary of the ten days from the return of Imam Khomeini, founder of the Islamic Republic, to Iran (February 1) until the victory day of the Islamic Revolution (February 11) in 1979.

Established in 1982, Fajr Film Festival is an event that celebrates cultural exchange, displays creative achievements of highly acclaimed cineastes and pays tribute to local and international films.

Since its establishment, Fajr International Film Festival has played a vital role in the development of the 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 35th Fajr Film Festival will be held in February 2017.
