Iran short to vie in Italy

Fotogramma d'Oro Short Film Festival in Italy is to host 'Limit' directed by Javad Daraei.

Daraei’s short film is a spiritual adaption that employs novel metaphors to challenge the cliché hardships for physically impaired people.

The 7-minute short film is about the difficulties and problems in the daily lives of people with disability who are afraid to involve actively in society because of the presuppositions and judgments.

A total of 53 films are to compete at various sections of the 50th edition of the festival.

Department of Culture and Entertainment of the Municipality of Messina, the Italian Association for the History of Cinema Research (AIRSC) and Association of former students of the University of Messina (AluMnime) have cooperated to organize the Fotogramma d'Oro.

The 50th edition of the Fotogramma d'Oro (meaning Golden Frame) is slated for May 23-26, 2018, in Messina, Italy.
