Asghar Farhadi, the acclaimed Iranian filmmaker whose latest movie was nominated for the Best Foreign Language Film Oscar at the 2017 Academy Awards, will reportedly not be able to attend the ceremony thanks to President Donald Trump‘s executive order that puts limits on immigration from Iran. Farhadi already won an Oscar for 2011’s A Separation, and when he accepted that award, he famously acknowledged how politics had kept Iranian culture hidden from the world.
The 45-year-old Farhadi is married to fellow Iranian filmmaker Parisa Bakhtavar and the two are parents to two children. Their daughter, Sarina Farhadi, starred in her father’s A Separation. Farhadi was born in Homayoon Shahr, which was renamed Khomeyni Shahr after the Iranian Revolution.
Here is a look at Farhadi’s career and why he won’t be able to attend the Oscars.
