“Unparallel World” wins at 29th Portobello Film Festival
29th – Portobello Film Festival
Best World Award
“Unparallel World” by Mohamad Yaraghi wins the Best World Award at 29th Portobello Film Festival, London, UK.
PORTOBELLO FILM FESTIVAL
The Film Festival was created in 1996 as a reaction to the moribund state of the British film industry, to provide a forum for new film-makers and give exposure to movies on different formats. Many of previously out-on-a-limb directors have since been recognised by the big fish in the industry. The festival has been dubbed ‘the wild side of Brit Film’ (Metro), ‘this pioneering film festival’ (Evening Standard), ‘the biggest celebration of independent film in Europe’ (The Independent) and ‘London’s biggest filmic free-for-all’ (Time Out). That the Portobello Film Festival shows tomorrow’s films today is evident in the number of ideas first presented here that regularly crop up in the mainstream.
The short film
“Unparallel World” tells of Hana, a poor girl, motherless and forced by her father to work as a peddler at a traffic light. She has a dream, but a tragic event sweeps away her hopes.
