Iran’s ‘Holy Bread’ competing at Berlin Kurdish fest

The Kurdish filmfest Berlin in Germany is screening Iran doc ‘Holy Bread’.

The Kurdish Film Festival Berlin in Germany has been screening Iranian documentary ‘Holy Bread’.

The doc, directed by the late Rahim Zabihi, is going on screen at the 11th edition of the German film event.

Produced by Touraj Aslani, ‘Holy Bread’ tells the story of some cross-border couriers who try to make ends meet by smuggling goods into Iran.

The 54-minute doc shows how these men put their lives in danger by crossing impassable terrains carrying very heavy loads.

It took nine years for the late documentarian to make the film.

‘Holy Bread’ has so far hit the screen at various global events, including the Big Sky Documentary Film Festival in the US and the International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam in the Netherlands.

The Kurdish Film Festival Berlin aims to present works of young Kurdish filmmakers from Iraq, Iran, Turkey, and Syria.

The 2021 edition of the event is currently underway and will end on October 20.
