About Films:

• Overflow by Nahal Dashti–A dreamer girl envisions herself as the mature mediator in her parents' conflicts. Her attempt to create harmony takes a dark turn, leading to an irreparable crime.
• Almost Intangible by Taraneh Esmailian–In an audition, a husband and wife are asked to improvise. In this role-playing, a discovery occurs that makes their relationship something it never was.
• Alicia’s cave by Hossein Hejrati–Despite her boyfriend's intrusion, Alishia decided to be on her own for a night. Her boyfriend flies a drone near her place to figure out the so-called "truth" by peeping through her window.
• Don Quixote by Rahil Fallahfar–A poetic exploration of a simple and profound question: When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?
