‘Boarding Pass’ wins awards in US

Mehdi Rahmani’s ‘Boarding Pass’ has bagged awards from the 2019 edition of the Queen Palm Film Festival (QPIFF) in the US.

The social drama has succeeded to win three awards from the American film event. The awards include the Best Director for Mehdi Rahmani, the Best Screenplay for Amir Arabi, Mehdi Rahmani and Babak Mirzaei and last but not least the silver award for the Best Actress which went to Neda Jebraeeili.

‘Boarding Pass’ is about body packers that swallow pre-packaged drugs willfully to transfer them across the borders. They usually carry opium, heroin, cocaine or amphetamine sealed in layers of plastic wrap in their stomachs for smuggling.

The story begins when a package is not sealed properly and starts leaking in the stomach of the main star of the flick. Then, the dying process starts with dilated pupils, slower breathing, ruptured intestines, and finally heart failure.

The QPIFF is a bi-monthly film, music and screenwriting contest with a live annual screening and awards show event in Palm Springs, California.

The QPIFF honors films from around the world with an enormous collection of awards in different categories and genres.
