The White Balloon – Film Screening

Join us for a special private screening of The White Balloon, the celebrated debut feature by acclaimed Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi, written by legendary filmmaker Abbas Kiarostami.

Winner of the Caméra d’Or at the 1995 Cannes Film Festival, The White Balloon is one of the defining works of Iranian cinema. Set on the eve of the Persian New Year, the film follows a young girl on a seemingly simple journey to buy a goldfish. The White Balloon captures the innocence and wonder of childhood while inviting us to see the world through a child’s eyes. It is a timeless reminder that the smallest adventures often carry the greatest emotional weight.

After the credits roll, stay for a post-screening discussion with fellow cinephiles as we explore the film’s themes, its place within Iranian cinema, and why Jafar Panahi and Abbas Kiarostami remain two of the most influential voices in world cinema.
