Blind women to make a film

Thu, 07/26/2012 - 10:01 -- admin

Seven blind Iranian women are going to make documentaries on their lifestyle. The project was proposed by director Mohammad Shirvani at a screenwriting and directing workshop held last summer for blind people in White Cane Charity Foundation in Tehran.

The seven women will shoot their films through compact digital cameras. Sara Parto, Banafsheh Ahmadi, Narges Haqiqat, Shima Kaheh, Mahdis Elahi, Shokufeh Davarnejad, and Naghmeh Afiat aim to make short documentaries on their personal lives by the sound-based recording.

The project is sponsored by Experimental and Documentary Film Centre (Iran).
