Sonography, the documentary directed by Haydeh Moradi, has been selected for the competitive program of Jackson Doc Fest in the United States, where it will screen in the festival’s Social Justice section.
FilmWay reports that the American documentary festival focuses on social and human-centered subjects, including works dealing with justice, human rights, inequality and urgent public concerns. The selection places Sonography among international documentaries recognized for their social perspective.
NORA VISION lists Sonography as a completed 63-minute Azeri-language documentary with English subtitles. The film examines the cultural pressure around having a son and follows intimate stories of families affected by gender bias. Through these personal accounts, the documentary looks at how social expectations can lead to conflict, emotional pain and the breakdown of family relationships.
The Jackson Doc Fest selection gives Sonography a fitting international platform, connecting the documentary’s critique of gender-based pressure with audiences interested in social justice and human rights cinema.
