US, Canada to host ‘Rabidity’ int'l premieres

The Canadian cities of Montreal and Toronto as well as the US State of California have been set to host international premieres of Iranian feature ‘Rabidity’.

Amir-Ahmad Ansari’s debut feature film will go on the US and Canadian screens in May 2018.

The social drama is penned by Amir-Ali Mohsenin with a brief synopsis which reads, “I took a risk to make either all or nothing straight! I would do anything so that my kid won’t go down the same rat hole I was born and bred in.”

It is the story of two friends, Shahrokh and Siavash, who embark on a dangerous path.

When Shahrokh wins big by cheating, the losers gives him 24 hours to either return the money or pay with his life. It is the beginning of a dangerous cat-and-mouse game between the two friends and the losers.

The movie compares the hardships the two friends encounter to rabies, a deadly virus that needs immediate treatment to prevent death.

‘Rabidity’ has Milad Keymaram, Hengameh Qaziani, Alireza Kamali, Jamshid Hashempour, Mina Sadati, Hossein Soleimani, Majid Vasheqani, Akbar Moazzezi and Asghar Tabasi in the cast.
