Written and directed by Kaveh Mazaheri, 'Botox' will be screened at the competition section of the Burgas Film Festival in Bulgaria at its 6th international presence.
The Burgas Film Festival, which is known for its tough selection of films in the competition category, has selected only seven films in this category, all of which have already been screened at festivals such as Venice, Rotterdam, Berlin, Toronto, Turin, Gijon, Hot Docs and Melbourne.
'Botox' has already won the Best First Film Award at the Fajr International Film Festival and the Best Film and Best Screenplay Awards at the Turin Film Festival in Italy.
The synopsis of the 'Botox' reads, "Akram and Azar two sisters lie about the disappearance of their brother by telling everyone he has fled to Germany. In time this "lie" takes a life of its own and leads everyone to dark and mysterious places."
