Iranian ‘Parva’ to compete at Accolade Global

Iranian feature ‘Parva’ (fear) has been selected to compete at the 17th edition of the Accolade Global Film Competition in the US.

Directed by Mehran Mahdavian, the movie is about a young man named Khosrow Amiri. Khosrow, who is now in his early 30s, does not have a good job.

He does his best to change his job conditions and doing so he faces some challenges.

‘Parva’ is Mahdavian’s debut feature film and was filmed in suburbs of the capital, Tehran.

The film is starring Hessam Mahmoudi, Mahtab Servati, Siamak Adib, Alireza Moayyedi, Akbar Aeen, Asieh Soltani, Mehrdad Bakhshi, Zeynab Shabani, and Mohammad Gohari.
