Iranian film ‘Into Zephyr’ to be screened at Portuguese festival

The Iranian film ‘Into Zephyr,’ co-directed by Amin Nazari and Seyed Morteza Sabzeghaba, will be screened at the 6th International Heritage Film Festival in Portugal.
Sabzeghaba, one of the directors, told IRNA on Tuesday that the documentary focuses on the remote village of “Tange Dez” in northern Dezful, Khuzestan Province. The village lacks basic living facilities and can only be accessed by crossing the salty water river, IRNA wrote.  
The film has previously won awards at the 2nd Varsity International Film Festival in Africa and the 1st Bioscope Global Film Festival in India. It was also nominated for Best Film at the 6th Three Acts of Goodness Micro Film Festival in China.
The International Heritage Film Festival, established in 2016, aims to promote cultural heritage through various media, with a focus on cinema. The festival showcases anthropological films that highlight the material and immaterial heritage, customs, education, architecture, and the sustainability of communities.
The 6th edition of the festival runs from June 16 to September 30 in Évora, Portugal.
