IRIS
The Company
Producing bold, uncompromising cinema.
Founded by filmmaker Saeed Roustaee and producer Soheil Larijani, IRIS is a studio dedicated to bold, human-centered cinema. Following the international breakthroughs of Just 6.5 (La Loi de Téhéran) (2019) and the Cannes premieres of Leila's Brothers (2022) and Woman and Child (2025), we are actively expanding our slate to produce personal narratives from emerging global filmmakers.
