"One of the most mysterious and magisterial films of the Iranian New Wave, Bahram Beyzaie’s visionary 1974 drama was banned for decades following the Iranian Revolution."
– Film at Lincoln Center
Bahram Beyzaie’s second feature possesses both the epic dimensions of myth and the hallucinatory atmosphere of a dream. Set around the northern coast of Iran, The Stranger and the Fog begins with a boat drifting onto the shore of a small village. The beautiful Rana (Parvaneh Massoumi) hopes the stray vessel has brought back her husband, who disappeared a year before at sea. But the only passenger is Ayat (Khosrow Shojazadeh), a wounded stranger with no memory of how he ended up there. “An otherworldly, cryptic, and visceral treatment of the archetypal ‘a stranger comes to town’ story” (Imogen Sara Smith, Film Comment).
