Closed Curtain (Persian: پرده, Pardeh) is a 2013 Iranian docufiction film by Jafar Panahi and Kambuzia Partovi. It premiered at the 63rd Berlin International Film Festival[2][3][4] on February 12, 2013[5] where Panahi won the Silver Bear for Best Script.[6] It was shot secretly at Panahi's own beachfront villa on the Caspian Sea. Panahi stated that he began shooting the film in a state of melancholy but managed to recover by the film's completion. Closed Curtain is Panahi's second film since his 20-year ban on filmmaking after 2011's This Is Not a Film.

The film was selected as the closing film of the 2013 Hong Kong International Film Festival.[7]
