About The Cloth Peddler
Set in turn of the century Baku at the dawn of the 20th century, a young man wishes to marry. Since he is a rich and successful business man, despite his young age, he feels that he should have his pick of any bride that he fancies, however, Azerbanjani tradition dictates otherwise.
Directed by Boris Svetlov, The Cloth Peddler leans on a strong ensemble — Huseyngulu Sarabski, Ahmed Agdamski, Alakbar Huseynzadeh — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1917.
