The 69th edition of the Melbourne International Film Festival in Australia has been screening Iran-US feature ‘The Night’.

Directed by Kourosh Ahari, the 105-minute horror movie is a joint production of Iran and the US.

‘The Night’ is about an Iranian couple and their one-year-old daughter on the way back home from a friendly party.

On the way, they get lost and find a hotel to spend the night. The hotel is where the facts of their life melt into hallucinations and the revelation of some secrets threaten the family to fall apart.

The cast list of the movie includes Leah Oganyan, Niousha Jafarian, and Shahab Hosseini.

‘The Night’ was premiered in the US movie theaters on January 29.

American company, Premiere Entertainment Group, is the international distributor of the flick.

The flick marks Ahari’s directorial debut and Hosseini’s debut performance in a US-based production.

The Melbourne International Film Festival is one of the world’s oldest film festivals and the Southern Hemisphere’s largest.

The 2021 edition of the Aussie event has been slated for August 5-22.
