The festival aims to bring the most acclaimed Iranian films of the year to Toronto's screens in an effort to present a comprehensive cross-section and showcase the depth and diversity of this national cinema.

From documentaries, short and experimental films to arthouse successes and domestic commercial hits, the festival's scope gives Toronto's cinephiles an unparalleled experience of Iranian cinema. The inaugural edition was held in November 2015. The 4th edition of the festival is scheduled for November 16th-18th, 2018.
