Directed by Arsalan Amiri, the Iranian film ‘Zalava’ is set to be screened at two international film festivals in the United States.<\/p>\n

‘Zalava’ will be screened at the Minneapolis\u2013Saint Paul International Film Festival which is being held from May 5 to May 19.<\/p>\n

The Minneapolis\u2013Saint Paul International Film Festival is a springtime film festival in the US state of Minnesota that has been held since 1981.<\/p>\n

Overlook Film Festival would be the second film festival where Amiri’s film would be screened at. The event is slated to be held on June 2\u20135, 2022.<\/p>\n

The Overlook Film Festival is a 4-day celebration of all things horror held in America\u2019s New Orleans.<\/p>\n

The film also last month was screened at the Jim Thorpe Independent Film Festival in Pennsylvania and was nominated for best picture at the festival.<\/p>\n

Navid Pourfaraj, Pouria Rahimi-sam, and Hoda Zeinolabedin are among Zalava’s cast.<\/p>\n

The synopsis of ‘Zalava’, a ghost story with elements of noir and melodrama set in pre-revolution Iran, reads, “When a village is claimed to be possessed, an atheist police officer attempts to denounce the exorcist in charge, whom he believes is nothing but a fraud.” \/MNA\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
