The Fajr Festival is the showcase of Iranian cinema and one of the country's most important cultural events. An event that can, for ten days, turn the country's atmosphere toward the seventh art.
This year the festival, in terms of directors and works, has a more diverse coloring than last year. Of the 22 films in the Soude-ye Simorgh section, 10 films have national and religious subjects. Also 3 films are in comedy genres, 3 films are in the historical genre, one film is in the children and adolescents genre, and 6 other films have a social theme. In this way, after national and religious themes, social themes have a relatively more prominent presence in this year's festival. Although considering other sections, the social genre is more numerous than other genres.
This year also 4 animation works compete with one another in the festival's animation section.
