German fest to screen Iranian ‘Fermysk’

The ASA International Humanitarian Film Festival in Germany has set to screen Iranian short ‘Fermysk’.

Directed by Maryam Pirband, ‘Fermysk’ recounts the story of a young pregnant Kurdish girl who survived during a Daesh attack.

She comes out of Kurdistan with a group of refugees without any identification for a reason.

Two American volunteers, Tina and Victor, help her. Victor was a war veteran and does this for people affected by war in order to recover his conscience.

Suddenly something strange happens and they understand why she hides her identification.

Produced by Maj-Sam Productions in Los Angeles, the US, ‘Fermysk’ has won awards at some global film events, including the Hollywood Dreamz International Film Festival, the MEGAFest Action on Film, and the International Independent Shorts Awards in the US.

Last year, Pirband received Best Female Director Award at Action On Film Festival for her short movie ‘Silence’ which narrates the story of one day of a deaf woman (mother) who has a hard job; she washes the outside of high buildings on rope. During an ordinary day, passing from each floor to another, she observes some stories and suddenly in front of a floor she saves another woman’s life while she is still on the rope.

Nazo Bravo, Maryam Sheikhmamondi, Leila Mirfakhraei and Ramin Madani star in ‘Fermysk’.

Pirband has also directed a number of other movies including 'The Belief', 'A Tiny Mistake', 'Hanaii' and 'Dance With Me'.

This International film festival is named ASA and the UN office for the coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) cooperated with ASA team to stage it in Iran and Switzerland.

And this year the Weimar city will cooperate with the ASA to stage it in Germany from September 28 to October 2, 2018.
