Iranian ‘Ahoo’ applies for 39th Fajr filmfest

Iranian movie ‘Ahoo’, directed by Houshang Golmakani, has planned to compete at the 39th edition of the Fajr Film Festival (FFF) in Iran.

Produced by Javad Nourobeigi, the film is in its final stages of editing and producers applied to take part in the upcoming edition of the FFF.

‘Ahoo’ tells the story of a self-isolated girl who sees her dreams lost but she hasn’t lost her hope yet.

Some of the cast members of the film are Reza Kianian, Ali Mosaffa, Hamed Komeili, Soheila Razavi, Reza Yazdani, and Sepideh Arman.

The FFF coincides with the Ten-Day Fajr ceremonies across Iran, marking the 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.

Mohammad-Mehdi Tabatabaeenejad, the head of the FFF, announced that the 2021 edition of the event will be held without public screenings and will only see jurors watching and judging the participating movies.
