‘Singing Wings’

EXCLUSIVE: Paris-based documentary sales specialist CAT&Docs has acquired world rights to Hemen Khaledi’s Singing Wings ahead of its world premiere at Busan International Film Festival this weekend.

The documentary will play in the Wide Angle competition in Busan, before playing at Zurich Film Festival later in September and in the documentary competition at BFI London Film Festival next month.

Set in the village of Darreh Tefi in Marivan, Kurdistan in Iran, the debut feature of Iranian filmmaker Khaledi uses the parallel narratives of two couples to explore themes of migration.

The film is produced by Sargol Moradi, Inna Tedzhova and Zina Brouyan, as a co-production between Iran, Georgia and Belgium.

Busan began on Wednesday, September 17 and runs until September 26.
