The Iranian Cheetah Society (ICS)’s award-winning documentary “In search of the Persian leopard” won the Best Foreign Feature Film award at Wildlife Conservation Film Festival (WCFF) in New York.
Produced by Fathollah Amiri (Wildlife Pictures Institute) in collaboration with ICS and Iran National TV, this documentary features the story of a team of ICS biologists working in a rugged high-attitude reserve in northern Iran where intensified human-leopard conflict has resulted in heavy persecution of this enigmatic large cat.
