Career
She began her acting career at age 17 with the leading role in I'm Taraneh, 15 (Rasul Sadr Ameli, 2002). Critics praised her performance as a defiant 15-year-old girl who after a failed relationship is determined to rear a child on her own, while struggling with poverty and social stigma. She won the Bronze Leopard for Best Actress from the Locarno International Film Festival in 2002,[5] as well as the Crystal Simorgh for Best Actress from the 20th Fajr Film Festival, becoming the youngest person ever to do so. Shortly after she set another record, getting nominated three consecutive times for the best actress prize at the Fajr Film Festival for her first three films. Since then she has maintained a steady but selective workflow in both theatre and cinema. She is mostly known for her choosy criteria in accepting challenging, dramatic roles, as exemplified by her long collaboration with Oscar winner Asghar Farhadi, making her one of the most acclaimed actresses of her generation. A prominent actress in Iran, she has bagged many awards and accolades.
Alidoosti played the title role during the three seasons of the hit Iranian TV series Shahrzad.
Fluent in German and English, Alidoosti has also translated books by Alice Munro and Nicole Krauss from English to Persian.
Controversy
Academy Awards boycott
On 26 January 2017, Alidoosti announced she would be boycotting the 89th Academy Awards where The Salesman had been nominated for Best Foreign Language Film due to upcoming stringent visa travel restrictions that the Trump administration planned to impose on Iranians.[6]
Personal life
Her father, Hamid Alidoosti, long played football for Iran’s national team and was the first Iranian to play for a foreign team (FSV Salmrohr, German 2. Bundesliga). Afterwards he became a professional football coach. Alidoosti's mother, Nadere Hakimelahi, is a sculptor and art tutor.
Taraneh got married and in 2013 had a daughter named Hannah. Her only brother died young, in an accident on Fireworks Wednesday (an Iranian New Year festivity).
