Iranian movies \u201c19\u201d, \u201cFemininity\u201d and \u201cA Hero\u201d will be screened in the 27th edition of the Kolkata International Film Festival in India.<\/p>\n

\u201c19\u201d directed by Manijeh Hekmat and \u201cFemininity\u201d by Mohsen Ostad-Ali will be screened in the International section of the festival, which will take place in Kolkata from January 7 to 14.<\/p>\n

\u201c19\u201d is about Mitra, a 57-year-old painter and a single woman, who goes into a coma after being infected with COVID-19. With her last breath, she begins traveling to different parts of her memories through her unconscious mind. Mitra\u2019s spirit comes back home to pack an imaginary suitcase full of her bittersweet memories and take it away. Moments before her last trip, just like Lot\u2019s wife, she looks back at the lives of hers, her friends and her generation\u2026 at what they have done, what they have built and what they have ruined.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe film narrates all the doubts of my generation, the fear and the trembling we have experienced all through our lives,\u201d Hekmat has said earlier.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s my own narrative, a narrative of mine as an author, as a filmmaker, on the verge of fading. In these hard times for our world, I decided to look back to see what we have made and what we have ruined. I feel that I\u2019m the same pillar of salt trying to open her mouth once again,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

\u201cFemininity\u201d (\u201cZananegi\u201d) follows the story of five women \u2013 Sanaz, Saedeh, Tala, Ladan and Beheshteh \u2013 each with a unique story, but one thing in common. They all live in a women\u2019s shelter in the south-end of Tehran, either by choice or by force. But now they all aim to change their lives for better, even if it is just for a tiny bit.<\/p>\n

\u201cA Hero\u201d directed by two-time Oscar winner Asghar Farhadi will compete in the Cinema International category.<\/p>\n

The film was shortlisted earlier for the Best Picture \u2013 Non-English Language category at the 94th Oscars and the 79th Annual Golden Globe Awards.<\/p>\n

The film, which is a co-production between Iran and France, follows Rahim, who is in prison because he was unable to pay a debt. During a two-day leave of absence from prison, he attempts to have his creditor withdraw his complaint over part of the sum owed. But things don\u2019t go as planned. \/T.T\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
