Join us for the 7th annual NOOR Iranian Film Festival!
January 31 & February 1, 2015
Aptly named "Noor," meaning "light" in Persian, the Noor Film Festival makes reference to the key element of light used in the art of filmmaking as well as the festival's purpose to "shed light" on Iranian culture and heritage.
