iFilm English is the English edition of the Iranian entertainment service, launched on 13 March 2013. Its current publisher portal separates series, movies, shows and live viewing, with Tehran and GMT labels in programme information. Choose the English edition and exact work; a related Persian or Arabic page may describe a different programme version.
An entertainment service with several work types
The broadcaster’s anniversary account describes television series, films, backstage documentaries, reviews, short films and documentaries about Iran. It also names productions such as Remembrance, Molkavan, Gileva and Gildokht alongside series previously shown by other IRIB channels. These are useful production and format distinctions rather than a current timetable.
A programme about a film can be a review or a production feature instead of the film itself. A blooper video can identify a comedy series while still being a separate item. Retain the series or film title independently from the feature headline when sharing a recommendation.
The current portal keeps editions and episodes visible
The English portal has separate series, movie and show routes and links Persian, Arabic and iFilm 2 destinations. Its programme cards include titles and episode references. Start in the intended language edition, then identify the instalment. Do not infer a particular dub or subtitle option solely from the language of a search result.
| Remembered clue | Useful detail to add |
|---|---|
| Iranian serial | English title and episode |
| A familiar translated film name | Release year or credited actor |
| Backstage feature | Production title and feature date |
| A comedy scene | Series and full-episode reference |
| Another language portal | Exact edition and actual audio |
Keep date and time basis together
Current programme information displays Tehran and GMT labels. Read the date associated with the showing before converting its time, particularly when a late programme falls on a different calendar day for another viewer. A series page’s publication date can also differ from the date of a particular scheduled episode.
For appointment viewing, use the current schedule and keep the programme, episode, date and displayed time basis as one record. For a past work, save the specific series or film entry instead. That preserves the useful connection between a translated title and its actual edition without treating a homepage’s changing programme cards as a permanent running order.
