TEHRAN -- The Iranian drama “Earth and Coral” will go on screen at Lebanese theaters from Id al-Fitr, the celebration marking the end of the month of Ramadan.
The film is dubbed into Arabic and will also be shown in Afghanistan in the near future, director Masud Atyabi told the Persian service of MNA.
“Earth and Coral” was dubbed into Arabic by a team of leading Lebanese actors at the Boudi Naoum Studio in Beirut.
The story of the film is set in Afghanistan after the U.S.-led invasion of the country.
The film tells the story of a man, whose wife is kidnapped by the U.S. forces. However, he is told that his wife was killed in an explosion.
A few years later during the wedding ceremony of his
daughter, the man sees a woman clad in a burka who kisses the bride and groom. When she calls her little son to leave the ceremony, the man recognizes from the voice that this woman is his wife. As a result, the man and the woman face a dilemma.
The film was shot in Kabul with an all-Afghan cast.
