Ojai filmfest to show Iran ‘Inner Self’

The 2020 edition of the Ojai Film Festival in the US has been scheduled to screen Iranian short flick ‘Inner Self’.

Directed by Mohammad Hormozi, the 15-minute flick will be shown at the 21st edition of the US event on November 7 and 11.

‘Inner Self’ follows the story of a female violinist who wants to enter an office but as she is not attired appropriately for the place, she must stay in the waiting room.

While waiting, the young woman copes with her frustration by composing a new piece.

An unexpected ally is moved by her performance and provides a last-minute solution to the violinist’s predicament.

‘Inner Self’ has so far gone on screen at a number of global events, including the Grand Off film festival in Poland, the Mediawave International Film Festival in Hungary, and the Dhaka International Film Festival in Bangladesh.

The film has also been the winner of a special mention at the 16th edition of the Akbank Short Film Festival in Turkey.

This year’s edition of the Ojai Film Festival, which will be held online due to the pandemic, is slated for November 6-15.
