Iranian writer/director Kaveh Mazaheri makes his feature film debut with aplomb with Botox. Similar to his previous short Funfair, Botox hilariously examines family dynamics with incisive dark comedy. Bolstered by its lovely set design, confident direction, and terrific lead performances, this modest, yet ambitious indie will surprise you with its magical unraveling.

Funfair is an Iranian short film directed by Kaveh Mazaheri, who also co-wrote the script with Sepinood Najian, that hilariously examines the family dynamic with incisive dark comedy. Grounded in its absurdity, Funfair is making a big splash on the festival circuit, and it recently became an Oscar-qualifying short by winning the Foyle Film Festival for Best International Film.
