Iran (IMNA) - The documentary film Silent House co-directed by Farnaz Jurabchian and Mohammadreza Jurabchian and edited by Hayedeh Safiyari is a joint production of Iran, France, Canada, Qatar, and the Philippines. In its world premiere in the International competition category of the 35th IDFA, this film has been nominated for the best documentary award, vying for the prize along with 12 documentaries from a variety of other countries.
The IDFA president commented on Silent House in a press conference, "From Iran, Farnaz Jurabchian and Mohammadreza Jurbchina take us to their family house. An extremely mature film, a saga in a way, a 100-year-old house in Tehran, Iran, a house of the upper-middle-class, a family that lived three generations there. The story of those who lived in the house is a mirror of the history of Iran since before the 1979 revolution until today; a journey that is deeply political and that takes us to a part or an aspect of Iran today that is I think very enlightening, because we rarely see that and our image of Iran comes usually from more stereotyped sources. So, this is a film not to miss and we believe will be seen everywhere around the world because it is very well-made."
Silent House produced by Elaheh Nobakht under the banner of Eli Image company, the Jurabchian siblings with F&M Productions, and co-produced by Stephanie Lebrun, Jewel Maranan, and the National Film Board of Canada, is prepared to have its world premiere in IDFA.
