SEVEN WINTERS IN TEHRAN celebrates its international premiere at CPH:DOX in Copenhagen. There, the film is awarded the F:act Award for journalistic films. The jury’s statement reads:

“This film is artfully crafted – from the visual language to editing style, we are impressed by the filmmaker’s creative vision and ability to execute. It’s emotional but never sensational. It tells a tragic story but yet allows us to witness the warmth and resilience of human nature. It not only shows the courage of individuals standing up against systemic abuse and violence but also reminds us that even deaths can’t defeat one’s will to fight. The award goes to ‘Seven Winters in Tehran’.”
