Born in 1957 in Tehran, Iran.
Filmmaker, novelist, screenwriter, editor, producer, human right activist.
Makhmalbaf’s films have been widely presented in international film festivals in the past
ten years. The multi-award-winning director belongs to the new wave movement of Iranian
cinema. Time magazine selected Makhmalbaf’s 2001 film, Kandahar, as one of top 100
films of all time.
Mohsen Makhmalbaf is a major figure in Iranian cinema. His films have explored the relationship
between the individual and a larger social and political environment. As a result,
his work serves as an extended commentary on the historical progression of the Iranian
state and its people. Makhmalbaf focuses on several genres, from realist films to fantasy
and surrealism, from minimalism to large frescos of everyday life, with a predilection for
the themes of childhood and cinema.
He made his first film TOBEH NOSUH in 1983. Boycott is a 1985 film by Mohsen Makhmalbaf,
set in pre-revolutionary Iran. The movie tells the story of a young man named Valeh
who has sentenced to death for his communist tendencies.
Makhmalbaf took time off from directing in 1996 to form the Makhmalbaf Film House, a
school for young filmmakers. It quickly became a private production house for the increasing
number of filmmakers in his family. In 1997 his seventeen year old daughter, Samira
directed THE APPLE, using him as a scriptwriter and editor. Mohsen Makhmalbaf’s wife,
Marziyeh Meshkini, worked as assistant director to her daughter and then took up directing
herself.
In 2006, Mohsen Makhmalbaf was a member of the Jury at the Venice film festival and during
2007 - the president of Asian Film Academy.
In 2005 when Ahmadinejad came into power, Mohsen Makhmalbaf left Iran as a protest
against the Iranian dictatorship and at present lives in exile with his family. He has been
living in Afghanistan, Tajikistan, India and France in recent years.
