Iranian actor dedicates APSA award to earthquake victims

On Thursday, Mohammadzadeh received a Special Mention for his role in ‘No Date, No Signature’ at the 11th Asia Pacific Screen Awards (APSA), in Brisbane, Australia.

Mohammadzadeh had earlier been nominated by the panel of jury for the best performance by an actor category for his role in ‘No Date, No Signature’ directed by Vahid Jalilvand.

A 7.3-magnitude earthquake killed hundreds and injured thousands more in Kermanshah Province.
Jalilvand’s movie, produced by his brother Ali, stars Hediyeh Tehrani, Amir Aqaei, Saeed Dakh, Alireza Ostadi in addition to Mohammadzadeh.

A beautifully shot psychological drama with comprehension issues, ‘No Date, No Signature’ narrates the story of a forensic pathologist, Kaveh Nariman, who has a car accident with a motorcyclist and injures his eight-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, Nariman finds out that the little boy has been brought for an autopsy following a suspicious death. Nariman faces a dilemma now: Is he responsible for the child’s death due to the accident or he died of food poisoning according to other doctors’ diagnosis?

Nariman, a doctor who works at the Iranian Legal Medicine Organization, has to examine the corpse of someone that he used to know in the past.

The 11th APSA also honored late Iranian auteur Abbas Kiarostami with a special Artistic Acknowledgement.

Covering one-third of the Earth, the 70 countries and areas of the Asia Pacific stretches from Egypt in the west to the Cook Island in the east, from Russia in the north to New Zealand in the south.
