Director statement

The events taking place in the era we live in do not stem from choices made in parallel universes or an unreal world, but are the outcome of choices made by us. We each play our part, and are responsible for the current state we live in.

“Unparallel World” is an emotionally charged and socially conscious drama. Many children in Iran are forced to work in hazardous conditions. They are deprived of education, fall prey to addiction, become victims of sexual abuse and since neither the government nor any organization take measures to support these children, no bright future awaits them. The incidents portrayed in this film are not fictitious or related to a parallel universe. Such events happen daily for some children in this very world that we live in, and we just choose to overlook them…

“Unparallel World” stands as the short film with the highest number of actors ever featured in the history of Iranian cinema, underscoring its unique and profound impact.
