TEHRAN, Sep. 04 (MNA) – Highly-acclaimed Iranian film ‘Oblivion Season’ by Abbas Rafei has managed to win two more awards at two international film festivals in Canada and California.

The movie has so far been screened in 69 international film festivals and won 36 awards and titles including the Best Film Award at Brasov International Film Festival (BRIFF), Best Feature Narrative Award at Buffalo International Film Festival (BIFF) and Best Film Award at the Third Annual Rahway International Film Festival in northeastern New Jersey, the US, in early September.
