Hot Docs marked the first film festival that “Silent House” director Farnaz Jurabchian has been able to attend in-person since the documentary made its world premiere at IDFA in November. For month…
For months Farnaz Jurabchian and her co-director/brother Mohammadreza Jurabchian were banned from leaving Iran, which prevented the duo from attending prestigious fests including IDFA, France’s FIPADOC, Brazil’s It’s All True and the Luxemburg Intl. Film Festival.
According to Farnaz, Iranian authorities “took issue with our artistic and cultural communication with international platforms , which is a necessity and the basic right of every documentarian around the world.” Despite the recent travel ban lift, only Farnaz Jurabchian, who is a citizen of Iran and Canada was able to attend Hot Docs with “Silent House.”
