Rhino Season (Persian: فصل کرگدن; Fasle Kargadan) is a 2012 Iraqi-Kurdistan-Turkish docufiction film directed by Bahman Ghobadi and presented by Martin Scorsese.[1] Starring Behrouz Vossoughi, Monica Bellucci, Yılmaz Erdoğan, Caner Cindoruk, and Arash Labaf. The movie includes poems read and written by Bayan Nassir.[4]
The film is based on Iranian Kurdish poet and author Sedigh Kamangar, who spent 27 years imprisoned in Iran while his family was told that he was dead. For many years Sadegh's family cried over a fake grave staged by the Iranian government.[5]
