TEHRAN (IFILM) -- The Lift-Off international film festival in the UK has been screening Iran’s ‘The Pause’.
Directed by Iranian filmmakers Elaheh Baradaran and Ghazaal Gholami, and written by Gholami, a synopsis for the film reads, “Continuous repetition of an action may be an exercise that does not always bear fruit, sometimes you have to pause before daily repetitions.”
Initially a film festival, the Lift-Off has grown into a huge platform for emerging artists.
This includes feature film content, shorts, commercial, music video content, animations and experimental arthouse.
They also feature a script promotion and exchange platform, along with extensive production initiatives.
The Lift-Off Film Festival started back in 2010. In London’s first year the festival received more than 750 films from around the world and was instantly humbled by the quality and ambition of the work sent in.
The 2022 edition of the event has been slated for August 29-September 12.
