Italy to host Iran short

Iran-Afghanistan joint production ‘Elephantbird’ is slated to vie at the Middle East Now in Italy.

The film directed by Amir-Masoud Soheili, will vie at the 11th edition of the Festival of Cinema and Contemporary Culture on the Middle East.

It narrates the story of an old man who has a turkey (Elephantbird) and plans to give it to his grandchild.

But the simple task of delivering the turkey to his grandchild is not that easy.

‘Elephantbird’ has been presented at several international film festivals, including the 23rd AVANCA - International Meeting of Cinema, TV, Video and Multimedia in Portugal, the 14th Batumi International Art-House Film Festival in Georgia, the Sedicicorto International Film Festival in Italy, the 2020 R.E.D. International Film Festival of Norway, and the 2020 Big Bear Film Summit in the US.

The Middle East Now Festival focuses on the key themes of the contemporary world as it is believed to be a powerful instrument to approach reality and cultural integration.

The 2020 edition of the event will take place on October 6-11.
