TEHRAN -- The Iranian movie “Alzheimer’s” will compete in the 9th Golden Apricot Yerevan International Film Festival, which will held in Armenia from July 8 to 15.

 

The movie tells the story of a woman (Asieh) who has lost her husband, named Amir-Qasem, in an accident. She advertizes in the newspaper every year hoping to find him, but her relatives, giving him up as lost, hold a funeral ceremony for him.

 

All of a sudden, a man who resembles her husband claims that he has come back after years but nobody is sure if he really is Amir-Qasem or not.

 

Motamedi, who is known for a philosophical perspective in his films, has tried his hand with a motley collection of films. His credits include “One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest”, “Parole”, “The Fall”, “The Good and the Ugly” and “The Rule of the Game”.
