‘Identibye’ to vie at Tracce filmfest

Iranian short film ‘Identibye’ is slated to vie at the Tracce Cinematografiche Film Fest in Italy.

Sajjad Shahhatami’s directorial experience will represent Iran at the 11th edition of the Italian event.

“The protagonist of the story faces a dilemma of choosing between sense and sensibility regarding one’s innermost feelings. He has been judged from the very beginning by the ones closest to him. The fear of these never-ending judgments fills him with doubt and he has to work against the clock to achieve his goal as he knows that one’s true identity is what matters most to them”, a synopsis for the film reads.

‘Identibye’ has already taken part in a number of global events, including the Central Florida Film Festival, the Sonoma International Live and Virtual Film Festival, and the Arkansas Shorts - A Night of Short Film, all in the US.

Amir-Hossein Sabbaghan, Nasim Moslemi, Maryam Najafi, and Hanan Azizi are the cast members of the flick.

The Tracce Cinematografiche Film Fest hosts films from around the world and screens short films up to 16 minutes.

The 11th edition of the event will be held on June 28-July 3, 2022.
