Iran movie to be screened after Fajr

Majid Majidi’s ‘Beyond the Clouds’ has been scheduled to be screened at Iranian cinema theaters after the 36th edition of the Fajr Film Festival.

The movie is Majidi’s latest project after his blockbuster ‘Muhammad: The Messenger of God’.

Set in the slums of Mumbai in India, Majidi’s melodrama is the tale of a wild kid who deals drugs and crisscrosses with his motorbike across the city to make the next drop.

He reunites with his estranged sister, Taara, in time to become her lifeline after she is being jailed for attempted murder while defending herself.

Talking about his experience of working with an Indian cast and crew, Majidi said “This is the first feature film I have made outside Iran, and it's an experience I have been waiting for years to happen. ‘Beyond The Clouds’ is an extension of my cinematic beliefs, the roots of which lie in human values, love, friendship and family bonding.”

The 36th edition of the Fajr Film Festival is slated for February 1-11, 2018, in Tehran.
