Biofilmography
Director statement
“Unparallel World” is an emotionally charged and socially conscious drama. Many children in Iran are forced to work in hazardous conditions. They are deprived of education, fall prey to addiction, become victims of sexual abuse and since neither the government nor any organization take measures to support these children, no bright future awaits them. The incidents portrayed in this film are not fictitious or related to a parallel universe. Such events happen daily for some children in this very world that we live in, and we just choose to overlook them…
“Unparallel World” stands as the short film with the highest number of actors ever featured in the history of Iranian cinema, underscoring its unique and profound impact.
