‘Kupal’ to vie at Middlebury New Filmmakers Festival

TEHRAN, Aug. 11 (MNA) – Iranian feature ‘Kupal’ directed by Kazem Mollaie will be screened at the 4th Annual Middlebury New Filmmakers Festival in US.

‘Kupal’ is the unusual story of a hunter and a taxidermist, named Dr. Ahmad Kupal, who, on the last day of the year, faces an unexpected challenge by trapping himself in his basement with little food and no water, having to survive by using creative and desperate means. The storyline of ‘Kupal’ and the tagline is, ‘you can’t be alone in this world!’
