Nostalgia Film Festival is the first independent Iranian film festival in Italy, with no affiliation to any political or religious organizations, launched in 2019 with the aim of displaying attractive and broad audience Iranian cinematic productions in the European zone.
Mission
Our festival is a annual event showcasing independent feature and short films made by Iranians from around the world.
NFF, even if for a short period of time is trying to be able to create sweet and nostalgic memories of the Iranian gathering in Iran for our Iranian audiences and presenting a part of Iranian culture and cinema for the non-Iranian audiences of the festival.
Passion
Selection of films will be solely based on the taste and desire of the audience in each period regardless of pursuing a cultural, Political or any other approach.
We believe that the major audience artworks at any given time reflect the cultural, social, economic, and political concerns as a part of a society that has been properly expressed and appreciated by its audience.
NOSTALGIA Festival is a place to see works that are sometimes less visible
Premium awards
