Sydney Film Festival is proud to announce a boost to its talks and forums line-up with an array of guests invited to discuss political themes and the creative process of filmmaking.
Following on from the welcome release last week of renowned Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi after two and a half months inside Tehran’s Evin prison, Sydney Film Festival turns its focus to the highly topical subject of alternative Iranian cinema. Announcing a strong panel line-up for an in-depth look at making films against all odds, this discussion follows the 2pm screening of No One Knows About Persian Cats at the Sydney Opera House on Saturday 12 June.
