      FEST 2016 / News / Ramin Bahrani, our guest
      02. February 2016.
      American director of Iranian descent Ramin Bahrani will be the guest of the 44th FEST, where he will present his new film 99 Homes.


      Set amidst the backdrop of the 2008 housing market catastrophe, Dennis Nash, a hard-working and honest man, can't save his family home despite his best efforts. Thrown to the streets with alarming precision by real estate shark Mike Carver, Dennis, out of work and luck, is given a unique opportunity - to join Carver's crew and put others through the harrowing ordeal done to him in order to earn back what's his. 

      The film’s premiere was on the Venice Festival where it contended for the Golden Lion. It was presented with the Youth Jury Award.
