CPH PIX Fest in Copenhagen to Showcase Iranian Film
An Iranian feature film named 'A Light in the Fog' directed by Panahbarkhoda Rezaei is due to be screened and compete with other foreign films at CPH PIX film festival in Denmark.
The film which represents Iran at the competition stars Parivash Nazariyeh. The 2008 movie recounts the story of a widow, Ra'na, who lives in a rustic house with her aging father and repairs items such as lanterns for the locals.
Ra'na's father suggests she consider marrying their distant neighbor Rahmat, and consider she does, as she goes about her everyday tasks of checking fishing nets, lugging coal and caring for her aging dad in the remote, fog-cloaked mountains.
Denmark's CPH PIX international feature film festival will be screened across Copenhagen's cinemas from April 15. The festival is centered at Dagmar Cinema, which will exclusively show festival films during the event, and which will host a number of exciting director Q&A sessions, parties and more.
CPH PIX will go on until April 25 and screen no less than 185 new, original, thought-provoking, funny and controversial films from all over the world. The winner will walk away with 50,000 euros ($67,500).
