Written and directed by Hamzeh Zarei, the Iranian flick grabbed the platinum award for Best Narrative Short at the July 2018 edition of the ISA in Los Angeles.
"Song of Hands” is the story of a kid who loves to play a musical instrument, but the father breaks the instrument.
The short film has so far taken part at a number of international film events, including the Five Continents International Film Festival in Venezuela.
