The Iranian films \u201cYalda, a Night for Forgiveness\u201d, \u201cSunless Shadows\u201d and \u201cCoup 53\u201d will go on screen at the International Film Festival and Forum on Human Rights in Geneva, Switzerland.<\/p>\n

Directed by Masud Bakhshi, \u201cYalda, a Night for Forgiveness\u201d is about a young woman, Maryam, who has been sentenced to death for murdering her husband, Nasser. Iranian law allows for the victim\u2019s family to forgive her and spare her life, so Maryam\u2019s fate will be decided by Nasser\u2019s daughter, Mona, on the country\u2019s most popular televised reality show.<\/p>\n

In front of millions of viewers during Yalda, the winter solstice celebration, Maryam and Mona discover that forgiveness can be difficult as they relive the past.<\/p>\n

Mehrdad Oskui is the director of the documentary \u201cSunless Shadows\u201d, in which he builds a remarkable relationship with a group of adolescent girls who are serving their sentence for the grave crime of murdering their father, their husband or another male family member in an Iranian juvenile detention center.<\/p>\n

The documentary \u201cCoup 53 \u201c by Taqi Amirani is a decade-long investigation into the U.S.-designed 1953 coup against the government of Mohammad Mosaddeq in Iran.<\/p>\n

The International Film Festival and Forum on Human Rights, which is one of the most important international events dedicated to cinema and human rights, will be held from March 6 to 15. \/ T.T\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
