Screening August 7th, 7:30pm Noor Film Festival An Iranian family comes to Norway and Lillehammer during the early 90s. The family is welcomed with open arms by a population preparing for the '94 Winter Olympics. But once the games end and the city turns back to its old self, people are no longer as friendly as they seemed. 1994 is a dark comedy about xenophobia, culture and how to cope in a new country.

“Blurring the boundary between fact and fiction, 1994 plays with expectations to come up with a film about cultural identity that's both funny and thought provoking.”
- The Guardian
" A terrifically observed short, comedic film about an Iranian born immigrant to Norway... 1994 considers with great care and empathy the role of Middle Eastern immigrants in European society..."
- Filmmaker Magazine
