‘Starless Dreams’ gets nod at Sarajevo event

Iranian documentary ‘Starless Dreams’ by Mehrdad Oskouei has received an honorable mention at a film festival in Sarajevo.

The 12th Pravo Ljudski Film Festival in Sarajevo earlier this month screened Oskouei’s documentary, which went on to receive honorary mention by the jury panel of the event.

The 76-minute ‘Starless Dreams’ shows young women in an Iranian juvenile detention center reflecting on the crimes they have committed and the circumstances that have shaped their lives.

The documentary has grabbed a number of prestigious awards and titles from various film events. Just in 2016, the film won the Amnesty International Film Prize at the 66th Internationale Filmfestspiele Berlinale-Generation 14plus in Germany as well as the True Vision Award at the 13th True/False Film Festival in the US.

The Pravo Ljudski Film Festival started as educational documentary film screenings for university students and developed, since 2006, into an international festival contributing to the promotion of creative cinema.

The 12th edition of the Pravo Ljudski film festival was held November 8-13, 2017 in Sarajevo.
