FILE -- In this Feb. 27, 2014 file photo, Iranian film director Asghar Farhadi, right, and his wife Parisa, pose after he was awarded the Officer of the Order of Arts and Letters medal, at the French Ministry of Culture, in Paris, France. The Oscar-nominated Iranian director says he will not attend this year’s Academy Awards because of a travel ban imposed by President Donald Trump. Farhadi, whose film, “The Salesman,” was nominated for best foreign film, says the uncertainty surrounding his ability to travel to the United States was “in no way acceptable,” and that he would not attend the ceremony even if an exception to the ban were possible.
