An exciting new trailer for the highly-lauded film, ‘Shayda’, has recently been unveiled by Sony Pictures Classics. Taking the world by storm, the film serves as the first directorial venture of filmmaker Noora Niasari and features the uniquely skilled Zahra Amir Ebrahimi.
‘Shayda’ made its grand debut earlier this year at Sundance Film Festival, where it garnered accolades such as the Audience Award in the World Cinema Dramatic section. The film seamlessly intertwines the tale of Shayda, a young Iranian mother, and her six-year-old daughter as they navigate their way through the tumultuous period of Iranian New Year, seeking asylum in an Australian women’s shelter.
The ensemble cast, along with Zahra Amir Ebrahimi (Holy Spider), boasts names like Osamah Sami, Leah Purcell, Jillian Nguyen, Mojean Aria, Selina Zahednia, and Rina Mousavi. Adding to the film’s sparkle, this year Australia has selected ‘Shayda’ as its submission for the esteemed Academy Awards.
Aside from her directorial role, Noora Niasari also takes credit for writing ‘Shayda’. The film showcases a powerful narrative about the troubles faced by Shayda as she finds herself at odds with the violence of her past. Niasari was joined by Vincent Sheehan in producing ‘Shayda’, which first premiered at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival earlier this year.
Sony Pictures Classics has set the stage for a release in selected US theaters from December 1st, 2023. Owing to its deeply evocative narrative and brilliant execution, ‘Shayda’ is definitely worth watching on the silver screen.
