The improvised press conference room, behind a thick set of red velvet curtains, would probably be best described as "Iranian". A homely, cosy middle eastern feel with chairs in neat rows, leather sofas edging the walls and the screen behind the panel's desk. The festival director, Pejman Danaei, wanted to make clear the reasons for the existence of the festival:- A a platform to showcase the great cinema that is coming out of Iran and Iranians all over the world and encourage the co...
UKIFF is delighted to
announce the inaugural 1st London Iranian Film Festival, commencing on
November 19, 2010.
Film
festivals that honour Iranian films are held annually across the globe
and now the time has finally arrived for an Iranian Film Festival to
have a permanent home in the United Kingdom. With a diverse programme
celebrating the best of contemporary Iranian films, the festival will
showcase some of the finest talents of this rich cinematic culture.
Whilst acclaimed
Iranian directors may well be familiar to UK audiences, a new generation
of emerging voices remain largely unknown. The intention of the London
Iranian Film Festival is to introduce this undiscovered new talent to
London’s film enthusiasts, as well as celebrating the work of legendary
Iranian filmmakers.
The
London Iranian Film Festival is currently seeking submissions with
consistent Iranian elements within the following categories:
Feature Film(more
than 60 minutes)
Documentary(no longer than 3 hours)
Short Film(no longer
than 30 minutes)
The chosen films will
be screened at two of London’s most prestigious cinema venues in a
weeklong event that will include Q and A’s. The Festival offers a number
of travel and accommodation allowances to participating filmmakers.
The 1st London Iranian
Film Festival promises to be a landmark event in promoting Iranian film
culture within the UK.
We look forward to welcoming you to the
occasion.
