'The Servant' to show at Wisconsin event

Iranian short animation 'The Servant' has been picked to screen at the University of Wisconsin-Madison film festival in the United States.

Directed by Farnoush Abedi, the animation will delight patrons at the second edition of the Wisconsin Iranian Film Festival (WIFF), which is currently underway at the University of Wisconsin-Madison (WUD) in the United States.

‘The Servant’ narrates the familiar story of a master and his servant, the story of a writer’s encounter with a gigantic insect, a cockroach.

The cockroach becomes a servant but gradually begins to realize that it deserves better conditions, so it tries to turn the table and change the game in its own favor.

The man, however, attempts to preserve the current situation but soon realizes the game has no rules.

‘The Servant’ has grabbed many awards from different national and international film festivals.

The Wisconsin Iranian Film Festival (WIFF) brings Iranian films to campus patrons in an effort to increase cultural diversity and promote dialogue between cultures through works of art.
