Iranian movie ‘That Night's Train’ releases trailer

Iranian feature film ‘That Night's Train’ has released a trailer.

Directed by Hamid-Reza Qotbi, the cast list includes names such as Siamak Safari, Maryam Boubani, Bahram Shakeri, Afshin Hashemi, Behnaz Naderi, and Aylin Rashidian.

Written by the producer Behrouz Rashad and Qotbi, the film is an adaptation of a novel by Ahmad Akbarpour.

A little girl meets a female writer when she was on a train. The writer promises to call and visit her later.

The promise, in the writer’s mind, is just a theme for her new story, thus embarking on a merge of fantasy with reality.

Helped by her father and some other people, the girl attempts to overcome her concerns and this leads to amazing adventures.

The flick was premiered at the 49th Roshd International Film Festival in Iran. It has also gone on screen at global events such as the Schlingel International Film Festival in Germany, the Cinekid Festival in the Netherlands, the Asian Film Festival Barcelona in Spain, the China International Children's Film Festival, the Kolkata International Children's Film Festival and the Jaipur International Film Festival in India, the Dhaka International Film Festival in Bangladesh, and the Muslim International Film Festival in Canada, where it won the awards for best feature film and best audiences’ choice.
