US film festival to host Iran 'Lunch Time'

Iranian short film 'Lunch Time' is set to be screened at the Atlanta Film Festival in the US.

Directed by Alireza Qasemi, the film is to compete at the 2018 edition of the event in a new round of the film's international screenings.

The 15-minute ‘Lunch Time’ is about a high school girl who has come to the hospital to identify the body of her mother. The people in charge at the hospital would not let her into the morgue because of her young age.

Atlanta Film Festival is one of only two-dozen Academy Award qualifying festivals in the U.S.

The festival is one of the largest and longest-running festivals in the country, welcoming an audience of nearly 25,000 to discover hundreds of new independent, international, animated, documentary, and short films, selected from more than 3,000 submissions from all over the world.

Atlanta Film Festival screenings often include in-person dialog with filmmakers, providing audiences, artists and industry professionals with meaningful opportunities to network, interact and engage.

The 2018 edition of the event is slated for April 13-22, 2018.
