‘Calendar Girls’ Screenwriter Juliette Towhidi To Pen Biopic On Farah Pahlavi, Empress Of Iran
'Calendar Girls' Screenwriter Juliette Towhidi To Pen Film About Farah Pahlavi, Empress Of Iran.
The film will explore the life of Shahbanou Farah Pahlavi, focusing on the resilience of a woman who, despite an exile lasting more than 45 years and mourning the loss of her husband and two children, remains deeply devoted to her duty as a sovereign and attached to her homeland. “Thrust into the spotlight at a tender age, she walked the corridors of power at a time when Iran was the darling of the West, only to find her and her family’s lives turned upside down by revolution and stateless exile. Whether exploring historical events or contemporary relationships, Towhidi’s scripts are imbued with a sense of classical grandeur and profound human understanding.
