The annual event showcases spiritual and humanitarian cinema from around the world while fostering open discussions about contemporary social issues. The festival serves as an opportunity for cultural dialogue and reassessment of spiritual heritage, bringing together filmmakers from different nations.
The Iranian entries include ‘The Sunset of Green Snails,’ directed by Mohammad Hasani. Director Bahar Dorabadi will present ‘The Quarantine Redemption.’ Three additional Iranian productions round out the country’s representation are ‘Dot,’ ‘The Legend of Nanuk Mountain’ by director Mohammadreza Moradi, and ‘Winner.’
The Fresco festival has been running annually since 2014, making this year's edition the 11th installment of the competition.
Armenia’s capital will host screenings and related events throughout the nearly three-week festival period. The competition focuses specifically on works that explore moral and spiritual themes, setting it apart from mainstream international film festivals.
