NETHERLANDS PREMIERE: FREEDOM FOR A MOMENT

NETHERLANDS PREMIERE: Freedom for a Moment

MULTIPLE AWARD-WINNING, AUSTRIA’S SELECTION FOR THE OSCARS

Ali and Merdad, two young Iranian men, try to bring their cousins, Asy (7) and Arman (5), from Iran to Turkey in order to join their parents in Austria. Waiting for the visa in Ankara, they share their life with other refugees: a couple and their son desperate to prove to the authorities that they are victims of a political persecution, a Persian teacher and a young Kurd who fight their miserable situation with a big sense of humour. A film based on true stories about a group of refugees trying desperately to reach the holy land of freedom.

“RIAHI ACHIEVES A DOUBLE ARTISTIC SUCCESS, PRESENTING US WITH A MASTERPIECE OF IRANIAN EXILE CINEMA WHILE AT THE SAME TIME JETTISONING ALL NATIONAL AND IDEOLOGICAL BALLAST. HE FOCUSES ON THE FUNDAMENTAL HUMAN DESIRE FOR FREEDOM AND SELF-DETERMINATION. A UNIVERSAL, CONTEMPORARY AND TIMELESS POLITICAL FILM JEWEL.”
