‘Coexist’ to vie in Finland

Iranian short film ‘Coexist’ has been scheduled to vie at the Vaasa Wildlife Festival in Finland.

Komeil Soheili’s directorial experience will compete at the TV Productions & Independent Section of the 2022 edition of the event.

The film is about a blind captain living on Hormuz Island in south of Iran.

As the tensions increase, he starts making some traditional bread using three unexpected elements from the island.

He fishes by his one of a kind ability to hear the sound of fish in the ocean.

Then, he collects the island’s natural salt and its eating soil to make the bread.

‘Coexist’ has already participated in a number of global events, including the Terres Travel Festival-Films and Creativity in Spain and the International Disability Film Festival “Breaking Down Barriers” in Russia.

‘Echo’ directed by Barzan Rostami is another short film to represent Iran at this festival.

The Vaasa Wildlife Festival aims to host films with themes that are related to climate change, people's relationship with nature, and conservation.

The festival will be held from September 28 to October 2, 2022.
