The Kaohsiung Film Festival International Short Film Competition (KFF) in Taiwan is slated to host Iranian short film ‘The Other’.

Co-directed by Ako Zand-Karimi and Saman Hosseinpour, the short film will go on screen at the 10th edition of the film event.

‘The Other’ narrates the story of a traditional man who suspects his death wife of having an extra marital affair.

He goes from bad to worse when he suspects her daughter belonging to the other man.

The cast list of the flick includes Mohammad Potki, Mohammad Bidaq-Beigi, Asieh Moradizar, and Shiva Soufi-Mahmoudi.

The film has already taken part in a number of global events and won awards, including the Best Silent Film award at the Venice Intercultural Film Festival in Italy and the Best Cinematography award at the Int’l Film and Music Festival Kustendorf in Serbia.

The KFF aims to discover new filmmaking talents. The short films accepted by the event are the medium to amplify the intercultural exchanges.

The competition sections of the fest include Taiwan, International and VR Competition.

This year’s edition of the event is scheduled for October 16-November 1.
