TEHRAN (ISNA)-The Yerevan-based Golden Apricot Film Festival opens with
"Certified Copy" by Iranian director Abbas Kiarostami.
The 6th edition of the event runs on July 10-17 as it hosts 150
feature films from 45 countries.
Juliette Binoche won Best Actress Award in Cannes Film Festival in
2010 for the Iranian film.
"Certified Copy" has already taken part in film festivals of Rio de
Janeiro, Melbourne, New York, Abu Dhabi and Chicago.
The film narrates story of British writer James Miller (Shimell)
who is in Tuscany (Italy) to give a talk about his new book, titled
"Certified Copy", which argues that, in art, issues of authenticity
are irrelevant, because every reproduction is itself an original and
even the original is a copy of another form.
A French antiques dealer, whose name is never given (Binoche),
attends the talk with her 11-year-old son in order to have Miller
sign the copies she has bought of the book, but has to leave early
because her son is hungry.
