Synopsis
Parviz is a man in his fifties who has
lived his entire life in his father’s home and never held a job.
His days are spent in doing housework for his father and chores for the
people of the residential complex in which they live.
This quiet routine
suddenly comes apart with his father’s decision to remarry. He tells Parviz to
move out and live in a place he has rented for him.
When Parviz
leaves the complex, the residents, who had previously cheerfully accepted his
assistance, begin to treat him as a pariah.
Under these alien
conditions, the normally mild-mannered Parviz begins to discover the more
forceful aspects of his personality. In discovering the violent power he
can yield he begins to show his father and the other residents that they cannot
cast him out of their lives so easily.
Cast: Levon Haftvan, Homeira Nonahali, Mahmoud
Behrouzian, Ali Ramez
Director’s
statement
‘Parviz’ is the continuation of the exploration
that began in my last film, ‘Rainy Seasons.’ An exploration of a particular form
of cinema and a portrayal of sections of urban life, the tensions and
mundaneness of which form part of my society. I have tried to tell the story of
an ordinary man who, as he discovers the destructive aspect of power, is
transformed into a different person.

Festival debut:
