TEHRAN (MNA) – Directed by Faysal Soysal and produced by Ali Nouri Oskouei, “Silenced Tree” was selected as the best film in Hamilton New York International Film Festival.
Receiving its fifth award from festivals in the U.S.., the movie has received a total of 18 awards from foreign festivals to date.
Filmed in Turkey, it is about a literature teacher who tries helplessly to hold on to his past: his shattering marriage, his sick old mother, a decaying walnut tree, and the memory of his father.

The Hamilton New York International Film Festival is an award-winning festival located in the Chenango Valley region of New York State.
