THE PERSIAN VERSION is available to watch online during the Sundance Film Festival. Natalie Qasabian is an executive producer on the film.
The film is a story of both the Iranian, and the Iranian-American, experience, centering on a large Iranian-American family, who gather in New York for the patriarch’s heart transplant, as a family secret is uncovered and catapults the estranged mother and daughter into an exploration of the past.
THE PERSIAN VERSION is written and directed by Maryam Keshavarz, and is screening in the US Dramatic Competition. The film can be watched any time after 7am PST starting January 24 until 10:55pm PST on January 29.
