Directed by Fereidun Najafi, Wolf Cubs of Apple Valley shows a shot that rings out in the valley, and then Ashos friend drops to the ground. The rifle bullet was meant for Asho; his father is wanted for murder and he, too, is being hunted. To evade those who are looking for him, Asho is forced to dress up as a girl and hide at his aunts house.

Breeze by Hamidreza Qasemi follows an Iranian who has grown up in a European country. After the death of his parents, he goes to Iran, as it seems to him to be his homeland, but Iran turns out not to be the country he imagined, nor the one his parents told him about.
The short film Dont Breathe has been written and directed by Milad Nasimsobhan.
To exert more tyranny and oppression, the ruling power has done something to its dissenters so that they exhale smoke when they breathe, and the agents must take such people into custody wherever they find them.
The Moscow festival will open with a screening of the Russian historical drama, Land of Legends directed by Anton Megerdichev, and wrap up with the Korean drama, Decision to Leave by Park Chan-wook.
