Feature film “The Redhead” by Karim Lakzadeh will be competing in the 4th Quito International Film Festival  in Ecuador, August 14-19.

Written and directed by Lakzadeh, the movie is about Farhad who returns to his birthplace, a village in a mountainous area, after many years. When a crime occurs in front of him, he goes into a jungle seeking the truth, IRNA reported.

The 2017 indie film won best director award at the 4th Eurasia International Monthly Film Festival in Russia and the 66th International Film Festival Mannheim-Heidelberg, Germany.

Lakzadeh has directed and written three other art house films including Scissor (2015), A Girl in the Room (2016) and The Gambler (2017).

It is an academic festival mainly organized by the students and their professors. The festival has a young and fresh atmosphere and invites jury-members from all over the world to judge the participating movies.
