Iranian director Nima Javidi’s debut feature movie Melbourne will be shown in Washington DC’s Iranian Film Festival, Houston Iranian Film Festival at Museum of Fine Arts, Boston Iranian Film Festival as well as Iranian Film Festival at Chicago's Gene Siskel Film Center in the next 30 days.

Melbourne has so far been screened at several international film festivals including 10th edition of Zurich International Film Festival, 27th Tokyo International Film Festival, as well as IndieLisboa and Belgium International Film Festivals.
