Iranian film ‘Pass’ awarded at US fest

Iranian short film ‘Pass’ has been awarded at the Down East Flick Fest (DEFF) in the US.

The Iranian Youth Cinema Society reported on Monday that ‘Pass’ won the Founders’ Award Drama Short Film at the seventh edition of DEFF.

Written and directed by Elika Abdollahi, the film revolves around a poor woman and shows that not everyone is trustworthy.

“I tried to say that not everyone is predictable, even those we have trust in," the director has said of her film.

‘Pass’ is starring Mina Hamedani, Hessam Hosseini, Soheil Mirza, and Ebrahim Barzideh.

Down East Flick Fest is “dedicated to providing an annual user-friendly showcase for independent filmmakers, writers, actors and other artists”, the event’s website reads.

The festival creates “opportunities to support new talent and entertain audiences throughout the year”.

The latest edition of Down East Flick Fest took place in November.
