Sisyphus
2019, Persian. Directed by Mohammad Berahmani.
When the role consumes the actor, the curtain never falls.
An actor has been stuck in one of their roles for some time and is unable to separate themselves from it. The actor’s professional and personal life is affected by this role, and they can no longer distinguish between who they are and the character they play. They see eliminating themselves as the only way out of this crisis. Winner of the statuette and honorary diploma for Best Play in the playwriting section of the 38th Fajr International Theater Festival in 2019.
