Endless Borders chronicles the journey of Ahmad, an exiled Iranian teacher in a poor village of Iran close to the Afghan border. The rise of the Taliban in Afghanistan has reignited the fire of ethnic and tribal wars. The Hazara Afghans, who are under immediate threat from the Taliban, enter Iran illegally. When Ahmad gets acquainted with a Hazara family from Afghanistan, he sees the real face of prejudice and dogmatism in the region. A forbidden love makes him act and discover the lack of love and bravery in his own life.

The award is conferred upon the Best Male Actor selected by International Jury from among the male actors of around 15 films of International Competition in IFFI. The award consists of Rs 10 Lacs, a Certificate and Silver Peacock medal.
