New doc on late Iranian director Kiarostami

Production of the 118-minute documentary 'Kiarostami Continues' began in 2016 and ended in early 2017.

Naji told the media that the base of the documentary is like Kiarostami's "Life, and Nothing More...," but the difference is that the subject is the late director himself.

Kiarostami, who died in July 2016, was an Iranian film director, whose 'Taste of Cherry' grabbed the Palme d'Or at the 1997 Cannes Film Festival.

He is mostly known as a screenwriter, film editor, art director and producer as well as a poet, photographer, painter, illustrator and graphic designer.

The cinematic works of the internationally acclaimed filmmaker have been hailed by festivals around the world.
