According to the Cinema Museum of Iran, this year's edition will host screenings from both the national and international competitions, along with festival book launches, masterclasses, and tribute ceremonies—all taking place at the festival hub.
With a significant increase in the number of documentaries submitted to both sections of this year’s festival, organizers prioritized a venue with multiple screening halls. The Melat Cineplex, with its spacious layout and advanced projection facilities, was deemed the most suitable option.
The festival team has also emphasized ensuring easy access for filmmakers, industry participants, and media representatives.
The 19th Cinema Verite Festival will be held from 10 to 16 December, under the direction of Mohammad Hamidi-Moqaddam.
