The film won the Revelations Prize at the Deauville Film Festival 2014, the Bingham Ray Breakthrough Director Award at 2014’s Gotham Awards, it also won Special Mention for Narrative Feature at the Hawaii International Film Festival and the Carnet Jove Jury award and Citizen Kane Award for Best Directorial Revelation at Sitges-Catalonian International Film Festival. For a first time director, this is a reaffirming amount of wins that show she’s in the right field of work.

A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night‘ has been dubbed the world’s first “Iranian Vampire Western”, and has been described as a joyful mash-up of genre and prolific influences spanning spaghetti westerns, graphic novels, horror films and the Iranian New Wave. I’m still hung up on the category of “Iranian Vampire Western”, I love it!!
