US fest hosts 'Weavers of Imagination'

Iranian documentary ‘Weavers of Imagination’ has been set to be screened at the 10th edition of the Trenton International Film Festival in the US.

Directed by Mohammad-Sadeq Jafari, the documentary tells the story of a number of blind people who devise a Braille plan for weaving a carpet.

It also depicts the good relationship and the happy moments that they have when they get together.

The documentary has so far succeeded to receive Best Documentary Awards from the first edition of the Lifft India World Festival held in Lonavla, a region near Mumbai.

‘Weavers of Imagination’ was also selected for screening at the main section of the Zlatna Anthropology Festival in Romania in 2017.

Trenton Film Society is a non-profit organization which brings filmmakers and film professionals together to build a better understanding of filmmaking and to explore the issues and perspectives in a variety of films – from local to international – as well as to build an appreciation of the film arts.

The 10th edition of the Trenton International Film Festival is slated for March 22-25, 2018, in New Jersey.
