Australia fest hosts ‘Tulsa’

Iran short film ‘Tulsa’ has been scheduled to go on the silver screen at the 21st edition of the Perth International Film Festival in Australia.

Directed by Seyyed-Parviz Shojaei, the flick is to represent Iran at the 2018 edition of the Australian film event.

‘Tulsa’ is a city on the Arkansas River, in the US state of Oklahoma. The film is set in the city in 1921 and narrates the story of a young black boy.

Founded in 1997, Perth International Film Festival was designed to showcase ideas "at point" in contemporary independent film and find a place for them in a conservative cinema and social environment.

The 2018 edition of the event is slated for July 5-18, in Australia.
