BUEI to screen The Persian Version

The Bermuda Underwater Exploration Institute will screen the award-winning romantic comedy The Persian Version this weekend.

The film, which will be shown in the Tradewinds Auditorium at 7.30pm on Saturday, is part of the organisation’s Films at BUEI series, which presents award-winning productions on the big screen every other weekend.

The film, written and directed by Maryam Keshavarz, earned two awards when it premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and centres on an Iranian-American woman, played by Layla Mohammadi, at odds with her family during a reunion in New York City.

The National Board of Review named the R-rated film one of the Top Ten independent films of 2023.

Tickets for the showing are $15 for general admission and $25 for the big-screen package, which includes a drink of choice — a glass of wine from Beringer Main & Vine, an Italian Moretti beer or a non-alcoholic beverage — and a snack pack.

Moviegoers can also get 10 per cent off a meal at the Harbourfront Restaurant before or after the showing if they make a reservation. They can call 295-4207 to do so.

Tickets can be purchased throughbuei.bm, ptix.bm, by visiting the Oceans gift shop or calling 294-0204
