What about Cannes?

According to Fars News Agency, “Leila Brothers”, directed by Saeed Roustaei and starring Alidosti, Navid Mohammadzadeh and Peyman Maadi, is the representative of Iranian cinema in the main competition section of the 75th Cannes Film Festival. The film will be screened five times at the Cannes Film Festival, the first screening of which will be at 3 pm today (Wednesday, May 25-June 4) at the Grand Lumiere (the main hall of the festival). Surprisingly, this film does not have a screening license and none of the film directors have seen it and no answer has ever been heard about this. No one still knows what is going to come out of this sealed box.

According to Fars, quoting Cinema Press, a few days ago, on Sunday, May 22, another film about Iran was shown. Coinciding with the screening of “Holy Spider” at the Cannes Film Festival, directed by Ali Abbasi and starring on the red carpet, a group of feminist protesters staged a protest against the list of “129 murders in France since the last Cannes Film Festival.” This is the second feminist protest at this year’s Cannes Film Festival. This indicates that these people attended the festival in a predetermined manner.

On the other hand, until the middle days of the “Armageddon Time” film festival, “James Gray” has had the highest score in the Cannes Film Festival. The film, written and directed by James Gray and starring Anne Hathaway, Anthony Hopkins and Jeremy Strong, and filmed by Dariush Khanji in New Jersey, has topped the screen critics list with a score of 2.8. It is among the films screened in the competition section. “The Time of Armageddon” is a deeply personal film about the strength of the family and the pursuit of the American dream for generations. Matthew Macher of the French newspaper Le Monde and Stephen Zakharrak of Time magazine have dedicated four full stars to James Gray’s new production. The Guardian critic Peter Bardshaw, meanwhile, has given the star the lowest rating for the film. However, “Armageddon Time” has garnered the most critical acclaim with 2.8 stars (out of a full 4-star rating) so far at the Cannes Film Festival. In this table, “EO” by “Jerzy Skolimovsky” with a score of 2.7 and “Triangle of Sorrow” directed by “Ruben Ostlund” with a score of 2.5 are in the next ranks of the film critics at the Cannes Film Festival.

But the disruption of the festival ticketing system for several days has also raised the voices of criticism and protest from many members of the media; This has never happened before and some believe that it happened due to the dazzling reception of the festival by the world and the presence of nearly 40,000 guests in this cinematic event.

Finally, the publication of a text by Ebrahim Irajzad, the director of the movie “Spider”, against Ali Abbasi, the director of the movie “Holy Spider”, was another side effect of the mid-seventies.

Finally, it remains to be seen with what idea, structure and narrative the film “Leila Brothers” is formulated today. Made in the village of Forty-Five Minutes, one of the longest-running films at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, it is a critique of the economic damage caused by gold market inflammation. has it. The French company “Wild Bank” is the distributor of this film and no information is available about its financial support.
