The legendary Iranian filmmaker Abbas Kiarostami passed away in Paris, France on July 4, at the age of 76. He remained active until the final months of his life and was already working on multiple projects that will sadly never be seen by his fans. Yet, he has left behind a vast, richly rewarding body of work within different media that will continue to be a source of fascination and analysis by cinephiles.

To celebrate his life, we are gathering in his memory on August 14 at TIFFto watch one of his most acclaimed films, Through the Olive Trees. Prior to the screening, several guests, including filmmakers, film critics, and friends of Mr. Kiarostami, will be present to speak about him and his art.”
