'With Me' goes to US fest semi-final

Iranian short 'With Me' has made it to the semi-final round at the Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival (FLIFF), underway in the US.

Directed and written by Azadeh Qochaq, 'With Me' reached the semi-final round of the 33rd Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival, which kicked off in the US state of Florida on November 2.

The five-minute, black and white film tells the indecisive story of a girl who ran from her past.

The film is currently taking part in the competition section of the 8th Saint Cloud Film Festival in Minnesota, the US.

The 2018 edition of the Loft Film Fest, running on November 8-15 in the US, is also set to screen the short.

'With Me' had attended several international festivals, including the Cinequest Film Festival, the 12th San Francisco Frozen Film Festival (SFFFF), and the 2018 Full Bloom Film Festival in the US, as well as the 2018 Puerto Madryn International Film Festival in Argentina.

The Fort Lauderdale is scheduled to wrap up on November 18, 2018.
