President Mir Qanbar is about a 74-year-old retiree who has dedicated himself to winning an elected position in his country's government. This beautifully shot and stylized film by Mohammed Shirvani shows the off-beat campaign of a man making his last stab for political power. (2005, 70 minutes)
All of the screenings will be followed by a discussion with Iranian filmmaker Persheng Sadegh-Vaziri. Born and raised in Tehran, Sadegh-Vaziri has created award-winning documentaries about Iran and Iranians in America. She currently works as producer for Link Television on the “Bridge to Iran” series and teaches film studies courses at New York University.
