I wish I could attend Boston to be a part of the first edition of the festival as an Iranian filmmaker. However, my fully independent short film was selected by Hammad to be screened in competition. Also in his review, he suggested te turn my short film to a feature film. It could be the praise for a short film!!! I hope such independent films could screen in other festivals in the US.
