Iranian director Naderi honored at Armenia’s Golden Apricot Film Festival

Three celebrated works by Iranian filmmaker Amir Naderi were screened at the 22nd Golden Apricot Yerevan International Film Festival in Armenia, which wrapped up on July 20, organizers said.
According to the Institute for the Intellectual Development of Children and Young Adults, Naderi’s classics ‘The Runner,’ ‘Harmonica,’ and ‘Waiting’ were shown on July 14, 16, and 18, respectively, at the Red Hall of Moscow Cinema, IRNA reported.
The screenings attracted large audiences and marked a significant return of the director’s early cinematic achievements to the regional spotlight.
This year’s edition of the festival, held from July 13 to 20 in the Armenian capital, also featured Naderi in a leading role off-screen—as the head of the Regional Panorama competition jury. During the closing ceremony, he was awarded the Parajanov Award for Lifetime Achievement, honoring what the festival called his “outstanding contribution” to world cinema.
The festival, named after the symbolic Armenian fruit, is a prominent platform for showcasing regional and international cinema. It has become known for fostering cultural dialogue and promoting artistic excellence across borders.
