They include — Gold and Copper, Here without Me, Beloved Sky, Child and Angel and Family Bond. <br /><br />While Child and Angel narrates the story of a girl and her nephew who have lost their family during the Iran-Iraq war, Beloved Sky revolves around Shayan, a young doctor who is afflicted with incurable disease. Noted Film Director, T S Nagabharana will inaugurate the film festival. Admitting to be a huge fan of Iranian Cinema, he told Deccan Herald: I have been closely following Iranian films for the past 20 years. The movies made by Iranian directors have a realistic approach and are laced with effective messages. <br /><br />Suchitra Film Society President, N Shashidhara said they got a a package of over 15 movies from the Iranian Embassy, earlier.<br /> “We zeroed in on five best movies which will be screened along with English subtitles during the festival. Though Iran is a small country, the movies made by the directors hailing from that place are brilliant in terms of content and visuals,” he said. <br /><br />“We have previously showcased Iranian films during many of our international film festivals and received an over-whelming response. This time too, we are hoping to getting a positive feedback from our viewers. <br /><br />The running time of the five movies is between 80 min to 100 min,” Shashidhara said.
