Pegasus Film Festival awards ‘The Last Survivor’

The 2020 Pegasus Film Festival in the US has awarded Iranian short film ‘The Last Survivor’.

Karen Jamal Omidi’s short title, which was screened at the main competition section, succeeded to bag the best film award from the 5th edition of the Pegasus filmfest.

‘The Last Survivor’ follows the story of some people who are waiting in line to see something valuable. But, that is when the unexpected happens.

Omidi’s ‘The Last Survivor’ has already competed in some national and international film festivals where it succeeded to bag some awards, including special jury award at the 13th International Film Festival in Tbilisi in 2019 as well as an honor of diploma from the 2nd Youth Filmmaking Olympiad in Isfahan in 2018.

Established in 2015, Pegasus Film Festival is the largest student-ran film festival in North Texas.

Due to covid-19, Pegasus went virtual this year on May 29, 2020; and the winners’ list has been announced on July.
