The Etilaat Roz, a documentary film by Abbass Rezaie which portrays the aftermath of Kabul’s fall for a team of journalists at the daily Etilaatroz newspaper, has won the award of the World’s Organization Against Torture (OMCT) at the International Film Festival and Forum on Human Rights (FIDFH) in Geneva, Switzerland.

“It reminds us that brave people fighting for human rights are still under threat in #Afghanistan. Let’s not forget them,” the OMCT said about the film, describing it as “an immersive documentary” in a newsroom at the time of Taliban’s takeover of Kabul.
