What happens

Black Rabbit, White Rabbit (Tajik: Харгӯши сиёҳ, харгӯши сафед) is a 2025 mystery drama film co-written and directed by Iranian filmmaker Shahram Mokri. Starring Babak Karimi, Hasti Mohammai and Kibriyo Dilyobova, it follows three destinies intertwined through apparently unrelated events. The film had its world premiere at the Visions – Asia section of the 30th Busan International Film Festival on 21 September 2025, and was theatrically released in Tajikistan on 24 September. It was also selected as the Tajikistani entry for the Best International Feature Film at the 98th Academy Awards, but was not on the list of films accepted by the academy. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
