The FFF coincides with the Ten-Day Fajr ceremonies across Iran, marking the 40th anniversary of the 1979 Islamic Revolution.

Since its establishment in 1982, the FFF has played a vital role in the development of Iranian Cinema.

Supervised by Iran’s Ministry of Culture, the festival hosts veteran directors and new filmmakers from Iran every year.

This is while the international version of the Fajr Film Festival will be held in April 2019.

This year’s FFF kicked off on January 30, 2019, and will run until February 11 in Tehran.
