Dariush Mehrjui has been a Director in some movies:
The Santoor Player is about that Ali is a well-renowned santoor player and music teacher whose concerts are the talk of the community. He also secretly nurtures a heroin addiction, and supports his habit by playing at weddings and parties after he was disowned by his wealthy and reputable family. The film charts his decline into despondency as his addiction grows increasingly worse and takes a sizable toll on both his career and personal life. The movie even ventures into gritty shantytowns and the haunts of homeless drug addicts. 'Santoori' is an emotional and intensely watchable drama about one man's downward spiral and the agonising steps he must take towards redemption.

Strong-willed and capable, she nevertheless frequently displays outward aggression towards the people in her life, jeopardising her relationship with her tutor, her fiance, and her brother.

On the verge of a nervous breakdown, Pari stumbles upon an old sufi book titled 'Solook', and with it resolves to change where her life is heading.

The Mix is about that Esteemed film director Khosrow leads his crew in a race to complete post-production on their latest film in time for the end of the Fajr Film Festival. This extraordinary film treats the audience to a behind-the-scenes look at how sound is created for film, often with comedic and even touching results. As we follow Khosrow on his quest, it becomes clear that while he starts to question his own directing abilities, he will stop at nothing to complete his work, even at the cost of his health.
