BASHU, THE LITTLE STRANGER by Bahram Beyzaie (1985) returns in a luminous 4K restoration and wins the Best Restored Film award at Venice. Film director Mohammad Rasoulof received the award on behalf of Bahram Beyzaie and read a few words from him:“It is now exactly forty years since the filming of this work took place in both the north and the south of Iran. At that time, any word that did not glorify the war was met with threats and was strictly forbidden. But was it also forbidden to give refuge to a migrant child fleeing that war? Today, with the utmost humility, I pay tribute to all the innocent victims of that senseless eight-year conflict, and I call down a curse upon all profiteers of every war.”
