TEHRAN – (Iranart)- Iranian director Vahid Jalilvand’s acclaimed drama “No Date, No Signature” will be screened at the 28th Stockholm International Film Festival.

It tells the story of Dr. Nariman, a forensic pathologist who has a car accident with a motorcyclist and injures his 8-year-old son. He offers to take the child to a clinic nearby, but the father refuses his help and money. The next morning, in the hospital where he works, Dr. Nariman finds out that the little boy has been brought for an autopsy after a suspicious death.
The festival also will screen four more Iranian films.
“A Man of Integrity” by Mohammad Rasulof, “Disappearance” by Ali Asgari and “Searing Summer” by Ebrahim Irajzad will go on screen in the main section of the festival, while “Retouch” by Kaveh Mazaheri will compete in the short film category.
