Cannes Market Dailies

An Iranian film, Se Rokh, or Trois Visages, or Three Faces is described as follows, "Three actresses at different stages of their career. One from before the 1979 Islamic Revolution, one popular star of today known throughout the country and a young girl longing to attend a drama conservatory." The director is Jafar Panahi, and unfortunately he is being detained by the Iranian government on the grounds of making "anti-Iranian propaganda" and even though people like Asghar Farhadi, director of Everybody Knows, has pleaded with the goverment to let him come to Cannes, it is unlikely he will attend the event. It will be held tonight at the Grand Theatre Lumiere at 21:30.
