New Delhi, Nov 14 (UNI) Arabic movie ‘Nowhere To Hide’ will be showcased at the All Lights India International Film Festival (ALIIFF).
‘Nowhere To Hide’, which released in 2016, will be showcased at the festival as part of the International competition for feature film segment.
The film has won national and international recognition for its portrayal of a man - the medic and father Nori Sharif - through 5 years of dramatic changes in the war-torn Diyala-province; one of the most dangerous provinces in the middle of Iraq.
From the time of the American retreat to the fall of Nori's home town we follow the director filming stories of survivors.
In a world trapped between ISIS and the different Iraqi Militias, his integrity and humanitarian vision is the only thing that drives him to continue against all odds.
The film gives its viewers a unique insight into one of the world’s most dangerous and inaccessible areas - the "triangle of death" in central Iraq. We get to know and hear the stories of the people who live there; survivors of this 'new war" that has become the norm and where the enemy is invisible.
The movie was directed by Zardasht Ahmed and won the audience award at Twin City Arab Film Festival in Minnesota.
After the success of its first two editions, ALIFF 2017 has this year received over 1000 film submissions from nearly 80 countries.
