“Sculpture” video art wins award at LA Sun Film Fest
TEHRAN-The Iranian video art “Sculpture” has won an award from the LA Sun Film Fest in Los Angeles, California, the U.S.
Written, directed, and composed by Ramin Hosseinpour, “Sculpture” won the Best Composer Award at the 26th edition of the film fest in April, ILNA reported on Wednesday.
The video art is about the life story of Persian poet and mystic Molana Jalal ad-Din Rumi and Shams Tabrizi. Rumi undertook one or two journeys to Syria, during one of which he met the dervish Shams. However, he was deeply influenced by Shams during their second visit to Konya in 1244.
For months, the two men constantly interacted, and as a result, Rumi neglected his disciples and family, who could not tolerate the close relationship.
One night in 1247, Shams disappeared forever. This experience turned Rumi into a poet. The Divan of Shams (The Collected Poetry of Shams) is a true translation of his experiences into poetry.
Hosseinpour’s video art has previously won awards at various international festivals. It recently won the award for Best Animated Music Video in the latest edition of the HALO International Film Festival in Saint-Petersburg, Russia.
It has also received prizes from the King Film Awards 2023 in London, the 2022 Vancouver Independent Film Festival Award, the 2022 Rome Music Video Award, the LA Music Video Awards 2022, One-Reeler Short Film Competition, International Music Video Underground, Munich Music Video Awards, Boden International Film Festival, High Tatras Film & Video Festival, Art Blocks International Film Festival, Europe Music Video Awards, Vegas Movie Awards, Accolade Competition, Europe Film Festival U.K., Stockholm Gold Awards International Film Festival, Prague International Film Festival, International Izmir Short Film Festival, International Music Video Awards, and Zagreb Film Festival.
Los Angeles is the capital of the entertainment industry and is known as a place of endless sunshine and movie magic. LA Sun Film Fest celebrates features and shorts of all genres from U.S. and International filmmakers.
A bi-monthly online film festival, its objective is to provide indie filmmakers with an international platform and support them with the best opportunities and the recognition they deserve.
