Sam Soleimani’s MATIN wins the Best Short Documentary Award in the 3rd edition of Immagina Florence Film Festival (October 6th to 12th, 2025 / Italy).

MATIN is a thought-provoking documentary, travelling into the world of the solitude and marginalization of an Afghan illegal immigrant and the dogs in a deserted shelter in Iran, through an observing camera, capturing the vast void surrounding them.

The film has been already selected in Kobani IFF 2025 (Quarter-finalist), HeCare FF 2025, Immagina Florence FF 2025 (Best Short Documentary Award), DokuBaku 2025 (DokuShorts) and Jackson Docs Fest 2025.
