The 57th edition of Karlovy Vary Intl. Film Festival, which runs June 30-July 8, has planned a retrospective program focused on Iranian cinema with a selection of films made in the past four years.…

Two decades after his work began to circulate around Europe and the U.S., albeit in limited fashion, the films of Masumura now rank among the leading film discoveries of the 21century – a highly eclectic, unabashedly confrontational body of work with rebellious politics and highly distinctive aesthetics.

Since 2015, the program Future Frames – Generation NEXT of European Cinema, organized by European Film Promotion and Karlovy Vary, has helped emerging talented European directors launch their careers in the film industry. The program is now expanding the pool of opportunities provided to the filmmakers through its partnership with Allwyn, a leading global lottery operator, and a collaboration with U.S.-based talent agency UTA and management company Range Media Partners.

The visuals for this year’s Karlovy Vary have once again been designed by Studio Najbrt, specifically by Jakub Spurný and Aleš Najbrt.
