Iranian short flick ‘The Sea’ has been selected to compete at the 25th edition of the NewFilmmakers New York Festival in the US.

Written and directed by Sahra Ramezanian, the short film will have its first international presence at the US fest on October 12.

The flick narrates the story of some friends who are planning to take a trip to the north of Iran, but something comes up.

The cast list of the film includes Farzaneh Salahshour, Farzad Alavi, Pouya Haqiqi, and Sahra Ramezanian.

The NewFilmmakers NY is run by a group of volunteers who wish to help people remain connected to cinema during the pandemic through online screenings.
