A Fleeting Encounter directed by Romed Wyder is participating in the Syracuse International Film Festival.
The screening is planned on the 14th of October.
Grappling with a mid-life crisis, Sacha leaves his girlfriend and escapes to his grandparents’ Airbnb. He is surprised by the presence of Marjan, an Iranian woman who is facing her own marital crisis.
They are both annoyed at having to share the apartment and rather than finding a place of retreat, tension builds. When Mina, a vibrant American, arrives, their mutual prejudices give way to curiosity and complicity. What began as an involuntary encounter becomes a moment of new possibilities.
SIFF sees its mission in engaging, entertaining, informing and inspiring the Central New York community through film and media programs is inseparable from its commitment to cultivate spaces that champion diversity, equity, and intersectional belonging.
The 19th edition of the SIFF is taking place from October the 12th to 15th.
