En Vero is proud to announce you that the short film entitled “The Victim” by two of our Executive Committee Members and volunteers from Iran, namely Mrs. Simin Azarmehr and Rassam Feali will be premiered tomorrow on May 15th, at the International Film Festival of World Cinema to be held in Nice (France).

The Victim” tells the struggle of a female prostitute, and victim of the sex trafficking industry in the last seven minutes of her life. It is a powerful art work that gives a voice and a face to the thousands of anonymous victims of nowadays’ cities, people with no identity, no legal rights.

Produced, directed and written by Iranians Rassam Feali and Simin Azarmehr, “The Victim” owes also a lot to the stunning performance of its actress, Shahrzad Borjian.

The film is nominated under three categories:

  • Best original screenplay
  • Best original score (music by Hootan Mokhtarian)
  • Best editing of short film
