'The Home' to be screened at Transilvania Int'l Filmfest in Romania

Iranian feature 'The Home' has been scheduled to go on the silver screen at the 17th edition of the Transilvania International Film Festival (TIFF) in Romania.

Directed by Asghar Yousefinejad, the flick is to represent Iran at the Romania event.

“When her father dies, a grieving woman returns to the family home after a long absence. As her relatives assemble to pay their respects, questions arise about how to deal with the body in this surprising suspense,” a short synopsis for ‘The Home’ reads.

In recent months, the successful Iranian title has made it to the official selection list of several film events in Denmark, the US, Turkey and India.

The TIFF is the first international feature film festival in Romania, which is held annually in the historic capital of Transylvania, Cluj-Napoca.

Founded in 2002 by the Romanian Film Promotion, the TIFF has grown rapidly to become the most important film-related event in Romania.

The 2018 edition of the event is slated for May 25-June 3.
