Victim Selected for FilmOneFest 2024 in New Jersey
Victim joined the official selection of the 16th FilmOneFest in Atlantic Highlands, New Jersey.
A place in an outdoor programme for very short films
Presented by the Atlantic Highlands Arts Council, FilmOneFest brings short-form work from different countries to an outdoor programme at the Atlantic Highlands Marina. The 2024 event is scheduled for 20 July, with film screenings beginning after sunset.
The festival’s compact format suits Victim, which develops its central conflict in two minutes and 23 seconds.
A child acts before the adults around him
Written by Sara Moradi and directed by Bahman Radan, the film follows a boy who tries to save the family’s goat during Eid al-Adha. His decision to protect the animal brings him into conflict with his father and the tradition he is expected to accept.
Ramazan Öğüt and Ramazan Uzun appear in the principal roles. Editing and colour grading are by Zahra Radanfar, with music and sound design by Siavash Beigi. The film was produced by AD1 FILM and is distributed internationally by IranFilmPort.
Further details are available from FilmOneFest.
