Having collected a star's following in a string of wild-man roles (I'm Not Angry!, Lantouri, Sheeple), young Iranian actor Navid Mohammadzadeh is sure to surprise his fans as a middle-aged, straitlaced martinet in The Warden. The character sees his plans for promotion threatened when, in the course of moving his inmates from one prison to another, one of them goes missing. Though there's little to do but order his guards to keep searching, Mohammadzadeh gives the one-note storyline a commanding presence and a pinch of dandyish irony. Festivals interested in Iranian subjects should be the first port of call.
