Faramarz Qaribian, Homayun Ershadi, Rambod Javan, Shaqayeq Farahani, Bahareh Kian-Afshar and Mohammad Motevaselani starred in the film.
“The Sinners” opens on the streets of Tehran, where a woman who developed an independent streak during seven years in the United States meets a violent end.
Many people wished her dead but who could be enough of a sinner to kill this woman? Two police detectives interview the suspects, revealing past events and motives through classic noir flashbacks.
Winners will be announced during the closing ceremony of the festival today evening.
