Sheffield Doc/Fest to screen Iran’s ‘Gracefully’

Iranian documentary ‘Gracefully’ is set to be screened at Sheffield International Documentary Festival in the UK.

Arash Eshaqi’s ‘Gracefully’ was selected as one of the films to be screened as part of the event’s Rebellions strand including films “that try to decipher the world while being an agent of change”, according to the festival’s website.

‘Gracefully’ won the Directors Guild Award at Yamagata International Documentary Film Festival in Japan.

The 2020 edition of Sheffield Doc/Fest will extend throughout the year, both locally and virtually due to the coronavirus pandemic.

‘Gracefully’ will be screened in Sheffield in autumn, and online in Sheffield Doc/Fest Selects in parallel.
