We are thrilled to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Iranian Film Festival Zurich (IFFZ) in 2024. This special edition is dedicated to the memory of Dariush Mehrjui, the master of Iranian New Wave cinema, and his remarkable wife, Vahideh Mohammadifar. We fondly recall his memorable visit in 2017. By building a cultural bridge between nations in Switzerland, IFFZ showcases a diverse selection of contemporary Iranian films, making it the only festival in Switzerland dedicated to Iranian cinema. 

This year’s highlights include seven classic films, contributions from emerging women filmmakers, and an all-female jury evaluating 12 films, including world premieres. Join us for this nine-day celebration of Iranian cinema and culture.

Join us from Sept 11 – 19 at Frame (formerly Kosmos), Lagerstrasse 104, Europaallee passage.
