The 4th New Delhi Film Festival has awarded Iranian movies “That Night’s Train” and “The Inheritance”.   

“That Night’s Train” directed by Hamidreza Qotbi received the Red Rose Award for best-released film between September 2019 and December 2020.

The film also won the best-adapted screenplay award.

“That Night’s Train” is about a writer who also works as a teacher. She narrates the story of an orphan girl to her students. Each student continues the story with her/his own imagination, and this gives the teacher material for her new story.

“The Inheritance” was directed by Sadeq Sadeq-Daqiqi. It is about Adel, a 16-year-old boy whose parents have divorced and his mother lives abroad. 

Linda Kiani won the award for best supporting actress for her role in “The Inheritance”.
