The 40th Fajr Film Festival (FFF) has scheduled to organize some 40 cultural programs and meetings.

The 40th Fajr Film Festival (FFF) has scheduled to organize some 40 cultural programs and meetings.

According to the head of cultural programs of the festival, the meetings will be held on the sideline of the festival which will take place from February 1 to February 11, 2022 in Iran’s Tehran.  

Supervised by Iranian director and university professor Masoud Naqqashzadeh, a total of ten meetings are to be held under the title ‘10 Nights with Intellectuals’ lectured by university scholars.

Ten other meetings are also organized with a theme on new subjects that have been the concern of cinema lovers for the last few years.

Also, six highly acclaimed Iranian films will be screened, to be followed by review sessions.

The 40th edition of the festival is also set to commemorate four cineastes who have produced considerable works during the last year.

Likewise, some 10 online specialized meetings are set to be held in cooperation with four universities and one strategic studies center in Tehran.

Since its establishment in 1982, the Fajr Film Festival, which also runs in an international version, has played a vital role in the development of Iranian Cinema.

The FFF coincides with the ten-day Fajr (Dawn) ceremonies across Iran, marking the anniversary of the 1979 Islamic Revolution.

Iran’s Fajr International Film Festival (FIFF) has recently been accredited by the FIAPF, a Belgium-based regulator of international film festivals.

The domestic and international editions of Iran’s Fajr film festival are set to be merged starting from 2023.

The international version of the event will be held later in 2022.

Supervised by Iran’s Ministry of Culture, the festival annually hosts veteran directors and new filmmakers from Iran and across the globe.
