The Locust

In the organizer's words:

Cinema Iran - 10th Iranian Film Festival Munich 2025:

Venue: Projector, first floor

Hanieh is a destitute forty-year-old woman who is about to be thrown out of her apartment by her landlord. For years she has been trying in vain to make a movie based on her own semi-autobiographical screenplay. She sells her very personal screenplay to her successful friend Pegah. The endless rehearsals begin at Pegah's house. The group increasingly identifies themselves with the main character of the script. Hanieh feels questioned ... The second self-reflexive and cinephilic feature film by Iranian director Faezeh Azizkhani portrays a broken woman in the midst of personal crises and artistic frustrations.

IR/D 2022, 79 min., OV with English subtitles. Director: Faezeh Azizkhani
