‘A Hairy Tale’ hits Iranian home market

Iranian feature film ‘A Hairy Tale’ has hit the domestic market of home entertainment.

Produced by ifilm’s star of ‘The British Briefcase’ Ali Mosaffa and written and directed by Homayoun Ghanizadeh, the feature film is about three barbers with different tastes, each passionate about his own interests.

“Danesh is in love with cinema and a well-known actress named Homa. Khan is crazy about the movie ‘Casablanca’ and his barber shop’s license. Shapour will give anything for canned tuna and politics.

"The atmosphere in the city becomes oppressive. Could an earthquake hit? Every now and then the body of a dead woman is found near the sea. All of their heads are shaved. As inspector Kiani says, it’s a messy situation,” a synopsis for the film reads.

The cast of the film includes many prominent stars such as Ali Nasiriyan, Saber Abar, Babak Hamidiyan, Reza Kianian, Daryoush Movaffaq, and Hediyeh Tehrani.

The film has gone on screen at some global events such as the 2019 Minsk International Film Festival “Listapad” in Belarus, the Cinematheque of North Macedonia, and the 35th Warsaw International Film Festival in Poland where it won the Special Jury Award.
